Jazz Carlin buried her Olympic pain in spectacular fashion by winning a silver medal in the womens 400 metres freestyle. Anthony Bitetto Jersey .The 25-year-old from Swansea was heartbroken after missing out on selection for London four years ago and had to watch from the stands. But only the invincible Katie Ledecky was able to better her in Rio as Carlin posted a second personal best of the day.Her time of 4 minutes 1.23 seconds was a second and a half quicker than her semifinal swim but still nowhere close to American Ledecky, who smashed her own world record by nearly two seconds.Carlin said: Four years ago I was in the stand cheering everyone on and now Ive actually been a part of the team and to come away with a silver medal, Im absolutely over the moon.Im so grateful to everyone at home thats been supporting us and to get up and watch us at ridiculous hours of the morning.I just wanted to come here and give it absolutely everything and have no regrets. Sometimes when you get out of a swim you think, Oh, I have a little bit left, or I wish Id done that a bit better.But I knew I was going to go in and give it absolutely everything and to put myself in the race first instead of always trailing behind trying to catch up. I thought Im going to absolutely go for it and see what happens.British swimming has never known a 10 minutes like it, with Carlins swim coming immediately after Adam Peatys stunning gold and world record in the 100m breaststroke. Carlin said: I was in the call room watching Adam and I had goosebumps on the blocks really. To see someone whos your friend, your teammate achieve a world record, become an Olympic champion right before my swim definitely got me pumped up.For me to come away with a silver is pretty special but just a great night for GB in the pool. Weve got a great team here and hopefully we can keep the momentum up for the rest of the week and inspire the rest of the team because weve got some great chances.Going into the meet, James Guy appeared to be one of those chances but the 200m freestyle world champion only just scraped into the final. The 20-year-old from Bury finished sixth in the 400m final on Saturday and this race followed a similar pattern, with Guy leading early on in the semifinal but fading.His time was more than a second slower than the mark he set in winning the title in Kazan. Guy said: Its nice to have that title but its tomorrow nights final and everyones forgotten about last year, its all about this year now.I felt pretty good in warm-up this morning and tonight but I think I might have given it too much too early. I was sweating through to the back end a bit but hopefully Ill see it through for tomorrow nights final.Ive just got to swim my own race. Im not too sure about the time but I know if Im fighting for places Ill never be giving up.Three other British swimmers failed to make finals, with Georgia Davies and Chris Walker-Hebborn finishing 10th and 11th respectively in the 100m backstroke semifinals while Chloe Tutton was 13th in the 100m breaststroke.Michael Phelps made his first appearance of the Games and came away with a gold medal along with his USA teammates in the 4x100m freestyle relay. It took Phelps remarkable tally to 23 Olympic medals, 19 of them gold.Swedens Sarah Sjostrom set a world record of 55.48 seconds to win the womens 100m butterfly, bettering her own mark. Controversial Russian Yulia Efimova was again booed before and after winning her semifinal in the 100m breaststroke and goes into the final as the second-fastest qualifier. Predators Jerseys Outlet .ca. Hey Kerry, big fan of yours, just finished reading your book. I think that we all saw the Canucks/Flames line brawl just after puck drop. It was obvious that something was about to happen, even to the referees because the fourth lines were on to start. Alexei Emelin Jersey . Irving scored 23 points, Tristan Thompson had 20 points and 10 rebounds and the Cavaliers beat the Denver Nuggets 117-109 on Friday night. http://www.cheappredatorsjerseyschina.com/ . "We have always prided ourselves on the way we play defence. Having two big pieces back is going to be a key for us moving forward for years to come," said Knighthawks head coach Mike Hasen. EAST LANSING, Mich. -- Michigan State is re-evaluating its quarterback position this week after struggling on offense in three consecutive losses.Head coach Mark Dantonio said Tyler OConnor, Damion Terry and Brian Lewerke will each get a chance to earn playing time in Saturdays homecoming game against Northwestern. Dantonio said he doesnt plan on deciding who or how many will play until the end of the week of practice.Pure and simple, they have to demonstrate in practice exactly what theyre going to do [in a game], he said. As difficult as that is to say, thats where were at because I think a case can be made for all three of those guys.OConnor, a fifth-year senior, started the first five games of the season after earning the job early in Michigan States training camp. He has completed 60.9 percent of his passes and thrown eight touchdown passes.Dantonio said OConnor and the offense in general have not been as productive as they need tto be. Mattias Ekholm Jersey. The Spartans are averaging 21 points per game this season, which ranks third-to-last in the Big Ten and 112th among all FBS teams.Terry replaced OConnor during the fourth quarter of this past Saturdays loss to BYU. He completed six of 10 passes with one interception and no touchdowns. Lewerke, a redshirt freshman, did not play last week. He has attempted four passes this season and completed two of them.Lewerke is a young guy with a lot of talent, but he may not quite have the experience that the other guys do, Dantonio said. I think to exclude him right now from this would be wrong.The coach said he wants to be decisive this week in order to avoid a quarterback controversy, but he needed to reopen the competition for the job because Michigan State needs more production from the position.
