(STATS) -- Maybe the only thing more tiring than defending Eastern Washington senior Cooper Kupp is trying to keep track of his many pass receiving records.The three-time FCS first-team All-American holds 33 records -- seven NCAA, eight Big Sky Conference and 18 Eastern Washington -- heading into his final season. The 2015 STATS FCS Offensive Player of the Year is on pace to end his college career as the greatest wide receiver in FCS history.Yet he never seems to be satisfied with his countless accomplishments. Hes looking toward the next team goal.When your best player is also doing all the little things, Eagles coach Beau Baldwin said, that makes your life and job as a coach that much easier in terms of trying to set a certain standard and a certain culture for the young guys.Eastern Washington opens its season Saturday at Washington State. In three career games against Pac-12 opponents, Kupp has combined for 28 receptions, 510 receiving yards and eight touchdown catches.Known for his excellent route running and physical style, Kupp has led the FCS in receiving yards in two of his three seasons and finished second the other time. He ranks fourth in FCS history in receptions (311, 84 behind the record), second in reception yards (4,764, 486 behind the record) and second in TD receptions (56, two behind the record).Im not going to try to top anything. Im going to be the best that I can be, said Kupp, who has the chance to become only the second player -- after former Appalachian State quarterback Armanti Edwards -- to win the nations top individual honor a second time.Generally regarded as the leading FCS prospect for the 2017 NFL Draft, the 6-foot-2, 215-pound Kupp bulked up in the offseason in preparation for the future. He comes from a football family as his father Craig was a former NFL quarterback and grandfather Jake had a long NFL career as an offensive guard.But having been a part of Big Sky championship squads in 2012 (as a redshirt), 13 and 14, Kupps main goal is to get the Eagles back on track after last years 6-5 record fell below the program standard.What is important to me, Kupp said, is that Im giving my best day in and day out. As long as everyone else on the Eastern Washington football team walks off the field their last time playing and is able to look back and say, I gave everything I had this season. I gave my very best, everything else that comes with that -- statistics, team success, all the stuff -- is going to come with it.

And when it opened, every player was at his stall. Thats a sure sign that a team is in a slump and is searching for answers.

There are surprises among the Vezina candidates, but most of the others are standard top-tier performers, even if the two Hart Trophy runners-ups have never been quite as good as they have been through the first half of the season. Edmonton Oilers Shirts .J. -- Marshawn Lynch said Thursday it will be good to get back to football after the Seattle quiet talking running back wrapped up his final mandatory media session of Super Bowl week. EUGENE, Ore. -- At about the same time newly minted members of the U.S. Olympic track team get their uniforms, theyll be led to a TV monitor featuring a map of Rio de Janeiro with three dots: the athletes village, the track teams training center and Olympic Stadium.None of them are all that close to each other; all will take a long time to reach.USA Track and Field CEO Max Siegel said Tuesday that after a few visits to Brazil we realized logistics would be a problem.So, in addition to counting on the Olympic traffic lanes that will supposedly make travel easier for the 120-plus U.S. track and field Olympians, USATF staff is making it clear to the athletes that they need to build in plenty of time to make their way through the city.Its expected to be a 45-to-60-minute drive from the athletes village to both the stadium and the training center.Its getting coaches and athletes to understand that its not going to be easy, like London, where everything is easy and right there, said Robert Chapman, USATFs associate director for sport science and medicine.Siegel said USATF is working with the U.S. Olympic Committee on contingency plans in case traffic does end up as snarled as some predict. Aretha Thurmond, a four-time Olympian who is now director of international teams for USATF, said staff will be on the ground a full two weeks before the Olympic track meet starts to make test runs to the stadium and map out every possible option for athletes.Theres only so much thats in your control, Thurmond said. Youve got a city with a mountain in the middle, and youve got to go around it.The process of getting from Point A to Point B may seem like a rather low-level concern considering all the other troubles consuming the Olympic city: Zika, polluted water, security concerns amid a financial crisis and more. But, as Thurmond knows, athletes need a comfort level as they head for the biggest competition of their lives.If we know somethings not right, then we try to build that into their travel schedule, she said, so athletes dont have to make that decision.Regarding the mosquito-borne virus that has hit Brazil as hard as any country, Siegel said USATF has taken part in USOC-led seminars and is distributing as much information as possible about health concerns.Among the many leaflets the athlletes pick up at team processing in Eugene is one distributed by the Centers for Disease Control called Mosquito Bite Prevention For Travelers.dddddddddddd The USOC will give athletes bug repellant when they go through Team USA processing in Houston later this month.But traffic, in Siegels view, is frankly, one of our biggest concerns over things we dont have immediate control over.Siegel spoke on an off day at U.S. Track and Field Trials, and outlined his vision over the four-plus years since he took over at what is widely viewed as the countrys most difficult-to-manage national governing body.Siegel said USATF ran on an average of $18 million a year when he arrived. Thanks to new sponsorship deals, including 12 new marketing partners, the number has doubled. That has allowed USATF to give $10,000 stipends to athletes who make the national team along with bonuses of up to $25,000 for gold medals at the Olympics.It hardly quiets the federations critics, who believe they should have more freedom to wear whatever gear they choose at the sports biggest events and want to see more revenue sharing beyond the stipends and rewards for medals.One of the most vocal critics, 800-meter runner Nick Symmonds, recently filed a sponsorship-related lawsuit against the USOC that was thrown out. He has been urging athletes and fans to wear black tape at trials as a show of solidarity against the governing bodies.If we cant change things through litigation, then we have to go through protest, and athletes have to stand up and say, `Enough is enough. This will change or were not going to race anymore, Symmonds told The Associated Press last week.Siegel said hes trying to create a bigger pie, but also gave a nod to the reality that USATF, unlike the NFL or NBA, is a not-for-profit organization that serves not only its professional athletes, but also its grassroots members and programs.The conversation gets a little cloudy when people have whatever their personal definition is about sharing money with athletes, he said. If you host an event that gives an athlete a platform, some would say thats not money in the athletes pocket. But someone needs to fund those things. ' ' '
