RIO DE JANEIRO -- University of Oregon multisport star Devon Allen finished fifth in the mens 110-meter hurdles final Tuesday in Rio de Janeiro in the first time the Americans have been shut out of a medal in the event.Omar McLeod, the world indoor champion, converted his season dominance of the 110m hurdles into an Olympic gold medal, a first for Jamaica in the event.Add the hurdles to the growing list of things the tiny Caribbean Island is dominating. McLeod said he fed off the medal-winning performances of Usain Bolt in the mens 100 and Elaine Thompson (gold) and Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce (bronze) in the womens 100.You see them go out and represent themselves and represent their country, have fun -- and they win. They harness medals, McLeod said. You want to do the same thing. Its contagious. You want to feel how it feels. I felt how it feels.Could McLeod turn into the Bolt of the hurdles?Well see, he said. The feeling is indescribable. I dont know whats going through my mind right now. I need to go back and just recite it a couple times, saying, Youre an Olympic champion.McLeod, who was a track standout at the University of Arkansas before turning pro, gained the lead quickly and pulled away as he won in 13.05 seconds.?Cuban-born Orlando Ortega of Spain took silver in 13.17 seconds, and Dimitri Bascou of France won bronze in 13.24. Ortega gave Spain its first medal in track and field since 2004.I was just thinking, Come on. Go. Go finish, Ortega said. I see the [big screen] TV and see my second place. I cant believe this moment.Allen said he didnt run the technical race hed hoped for but was proud of a top-five finish.?For it being my first international competition, as well as my first Olympics, I think I did well, he said. In hurdles, there are barriers, and theyre in the way, and its about maneuvering and managing those barriers, and my body position wasnt as great as I would have wanted it to be, and thats why I wasnt as fast.The Ducks wide receiver said he plans to wind down and enjoy the last few days in Rio with his family before?he joins his?Oregon?football teammates on the practice field.Ill probably be the best-shaped athlete on the field right now, Allen said with a laugh.Allen had nine catches for 94 yards last season for the Ducks as he eased back into action after tearing a ligament in his right knee during the Rose Bowl on Jan. 1, 2015. He said it wont take him long to get up to speed on the football field, and hes already at his playing weight of 185 pounds (84 kilograms). Still, rest might be a good thing.Jumping back in, it could work, Allen said. But maybe resting will make for a better athlete in the long run. Eventually, Ill get back in there.During the U.S. Olympic track trials, Allens high school track coach, Tim ONeil, said the 21-year-old has the potential to break the world record of 12.80 seconds.?Asked about ONeils claim following his fifth-place finish Tuesday, Allen said the record is still in sight.?I think thats something I am going to be doing in the next couple years, he said. This is my fifth year hurdling, and you see a lot of guys -- it takes technique to hurdle, and that takes time. The world record gets broken at later ages.Aries Merritt was 27, and Liu Xiang was a little older. It takes time, and I got nothing but time.There were quite a few tumbles and falls in the hurdles Tuesday. Haitis Jeffrey Julmis smacked into the first hurdle in his semifinal heat, tumbled over it and took the hurdle right along with him. Then he got back up and finished to a roar from the crowd.It didnt make sense to go down as a sore loser, Julmis said. The Olympic spirit -- finish the race.Information from ESPNs?Alyssa Roenigk?and The Associated Press was used in this report.? Authentic Custom Lakers Jersey .

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Trevor Siemian will start at quarterback in the Denver Broncos third preseason game Saturday night against the Los Angeles Rams.While that doesnt yet mean that Siemian will be the teams starter when the Broncos open the season Sept. 8 against the Carolina Panthers, he will get the last best look with the starters before coach Gary Kubiak makes the call.Trevor will start the game this week, Kubiak said Monday. Theyre all going to play, and the biggest thing I have to take a look at, too, is how Im going to play our starters as far as how I get the rotation going. ... Its down to the nitty-gritty here. ... Im going to make a decision next week, and were going to go to work.Kubiak didnt say whether?Mark Sanchez or rookie Paxton Lynch would follow Siemian into the lineup against the Rams on Saturday, but he added he was still considering how long the starters would play in the game. In the past, Broncos starters have played into the third quarter of the third preseason game.It would be significant if Lynch was the second quarterback into the game against the Rams. It is expected that Kubiak will give the exact order after Siemian later in the week.Siemian was also getting treatment on his right shoulder Monday after falling hard trying to tackle San Francisco 49ers safety Eric Reid, who returned an interception 44 yards for a touchdown this past weekend. That throw, as it turned out, was Siemians only mistake, as he finished 10-of-14 for 75 yards and was 10-of-11 passing at one point.Siemian also led the offense on a 10-play, 86-yard touchdown drive to open the game. His body of work was enough for Kubiak to give Siemian the start.I think Trevor did a good job the other night. Obviously he has one play hed like to have back, or it probably would, it would have, been as good as it could be, Kubiak said. So, Im going to go back and give him a chance to do that again.After thhe game, Siemian was composed and said of the interception: I just cant turn the ball over, I made a bad decision.dddddddddddd I want that one back. That one bad play, unfortunately you cant have one bad play.As he did following the game, Kubiak reaffirmed Monday that while Siemian has to protect the ball better, Kubiak said of his play call, Hell, man, that wasnt a very good call.Sanchez was 10-of-17 for 120 yards with two lost fumbles -- both in a four-play span just before halftime. Sanchez was emotional after the game, saying that he had squandered the opportunity to win the starting job.Going into my eighth year I know better, I know Ive got to get the ball out, Sanchez said after the game. I know I can play this game and I know Im better than I showed. Two really bad plays that took away from a great performance and potentially winning a job, so thats really too bad.Given that the Broncos open the regular season on a Thursday night, at least three days before the other games, Kubiak said he wants to name the regular-season starter next week.The Broncos close out the preseason Sept. 1 in Arizona. When asked whether he envisioned a scenario in which all three of the quarterbacks would be forced to play in that game, Kubiak said I dont envision that, which suggests that whoever is named the starter for the season likely would sit that one out.Kubiak also added Monday that he had planned for the possibility that the competition behind center could go this deep into the preseason.I expected it, I expected it, Kubiak said. Weve got three quarterbacks, two of which werent on this team this year, and one ... who has one regular-season snap. I knew this was going to take some time, and I think to a credit to them and how well theyve battled and pushed each other. ' ' '
