can take heart from the fact that they dished out a muc

BROOKLYN, Mich. -- When Kyle Larson was trying to hold off Chase Elliott at Michigan International Speedway last weekend, this much was certain: One of them was going to win a Sprint Cup race for the first time.The next generation of NASCAR standouts has quite an opportunity over these next couple months. With Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart fading from prominence and Dale Earnhardt Jr. sidelined with concussion problems, a handful of younger drivers have emerged in impressive fashion of late.The 24-year-old Larson ended up winning at Michigan, with the 20-year-old Elliott coming in second. Ryan Blaney was fourth, equaling the highest finish of the 22-year-olds career.When we took that last restart I saw three guys up there that hadnt won before, six-time series champion Jimmie Johnson said. In my mind I thought, `Man, I hope one of these guys gets it.Larson wrapped up a spot in the Chase with his victory at Michigan, and Elliott seems likely to get in, too. Chris Buescher has a berth waiting for him if the 23-year-old can remain in the top 30 in points. His victory at Pocono was the first of his career.Last years Chase did not include a single driver under 25.Gordon retired at the end of last season, although hes been back behind the wheel recently to replace the injured Earnhardt. Elliott has replaced Gordon in the No. 24 car and has 12 top-10 finishes this year, an encouraging sign amid a tough year for Hendrick Motorsports.Gordons retirement as a full-time driver and Earnhardts concussion problems have driven home the fact that NASCAR wont be able to rely on its biggest names forever. Stewart plans to retire after this season, and even Johnson is all the way down in ninth place in the standings.The first race at Michigan back in June had the youngest top three in Sprint Cup history, with Joey Logano (26) finishing ahead of Elliott and Larson. Last weekend, it was Larson and Elliott going 1-2. Both were driving Chevrolets.Chevy has had a fortunate lineup of drivers and team owners, some of the very best in the industry, said Jim Campbell, vice president of performance vehicles and motorsports for Chevrolet. As some of them retire, and we are working with our team owners to bring guys in like Chase Elliott and Kyle Larson, it really bodes well for the future. Were proud of those guys. Theyre incredibly talented and surrounded by great teams.Larsons victory snapped a 99-race losing skid for Chip Ganassi Racing, and the owner expressed confidence that his young driver wouldnt be making a jump to another team any time soon.His contract came up one time. I said, `What do you think about these other teams that are talking to you? Ill never forget his answer. He said, `They all had a shot at me the first time around and they passed, Ganassi said. To say hes the foundation of the team, sure. Any time you have a young guy come along that can win, sure, you want to rally around that.Larson was the first graduate of the NASCAR Drive for Diversity and NASCAR Next programs to win a Sprint Cup race. It happened in his 99th start.I wouldnt have been surprised if he won in his first two or three starts, and wouldnt be surprised if it took him 10 years. Theres no guarantees at this level, said Brad Keselowski, who finished third Sunday. Theres too many pieces. Being a great driver alone is not enough to guarantee success. Everything has to come together. ... I look forward to racing him and Chase and Ryan Blaney and all those guys for years to come.---Follow Noah Trister at www.Twitter.com/noahtrister Scarpe Air Max 2017 Scontate . -- Jaye Marie Green shot a 4-under 68 on Thursday to increase her lead to five strokes after the second round of the LPGA Tours qualifying tournament.

Indian mens hockey team conceded a late goal to lose 2-1 against reigning double Olympic champions Germany in their second Pool B match of the Rio Olympics on Monday.After weathering Indias attacks for the majority of the game, the Germans exerted tremendous pressure on the Indian defence in the final two minutes and stole the win with just 3.1 seconds from full time.Christopher Ruhr scored the winner for Germany with a deflection from close range to dash the PR Sreejesh-led sides hopes.Earlier, Germany took the lead against the run of play through a field goal from Niklas Wellen (18th minute) before Rupinder Pal Singh (23rd) drew parity for India by converting his third penalty corner of the Games.The win helped Germany keep their successful run intact against India since 1996.
