Right-handed wonder-boy Stephen Strasburg, who turned heads and earned national recognition as a sophomore pitcher for San Diego State last year, is continuing his wave of destruction, leaving opposing batters in his wake overseas. In his Olympic debut, Strasburg, who seems to make headlines every time he takes the mound, went seven hitless innings before the Dutch were able to breakup the no-hitter. It was the only hit Strasburg gave up as an extended rain delay resulted in the game being called in the eighth inning with team USA up 7-0. As the only collegiate player on a team made up of minor-league pros, Strasburg's performance is a bright spot on what has been a disappointing beginning to team USA's run at a medal, going 2-2 to begin pool play.

Ryan Lindley's beard was unkempt and patchy in several places.
The San Diego State football team's quarterback hadn't shaved in a few days and already feared the scolding his parents and head coach Chuck Long would give him for his surplus of facial hair.
But while Lindley admitted the rigors of a grueling summer training camp had prevented him from seeing his razor in the past week, the redshirt freshman may have just been trying out a new look.

The Cal Poly football team will take a step up in competition this year when it plays two Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly Division I-A) teams. But don't expect the Mustangs to move up to the FBS permanently - at least not yet.
Responding to a recent comment Fresno State head coach Pat Hill made to the Fresno Bee suggesting Cal Poly would eventually belong to the Western Athletic Conference, Cal Poly athletic director Alison Cone said such a move is unlikely to take place in the near future.
