Chicago Blackhawks Store .Russias team was banned from the Paralympics in Rio de Janeiro in September after a World Anti-Doping Agency report accused some of the countrys leading sports officials of covering up hundreds of failed drug tests.The IPC published a list of conditions this week that Russia must fulfill in order to be reinstated in time for the 2018 Winter Paralympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea, including fees totaling 575,000 euros ($608,000) to cover the significant costs resulting from the increased (drug) testing of Russian athletes.Russian Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Mutko said the financial issues are exaggerated, and Id even call them extortion. He also opposed a demand that Russian Paralympic chiefs cut ties with the government.The IPC officials think that theres no one above them but their own conscience, Mutko said in comments to state news agency Tass. What does it mean that the state shouldnt be among the management? The Paralympic movement does nothing anywhere in the world without state support.Other conditions in the IPC document include increased anti-doping education for athletes and staff and a demand that the Russian Paralympic Committee must distance itself from all political/propaganda statements issued by Russian authorities.Russian Paralympic officials have said they plan to study the conditions with lawyers ahead of a meeting with the IPC.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas -- Christian Kirk and Texas A&Ms punt return unit had been a bit discouraged that they had been unable to make a big play this season.That feeling changed quickly Saturday night.Kirk returned two punts for touchdowns and had a scoring catch to help No. 9 Texas A&M rout New Mexico State 52-10 .Texas A&M (7-1) took a break from Southeastern Conference play to face the Sun Belt team for the first time, a week after suffering its first loss at top-ranked Alabama.It was the first one of the season for me and the punt return group and it felt good for everyone, Kirk said. Its been a long time coming.Kirk returned punts for 70 and 73 yards to become the first player in school history with two punt return scores in a game. He has a school-record four in his career.Hes established himself as one of the best returners in the nation, coach Kevin Sumlin said. Hes a weapon and has been since hes been here ... theres no question with the ball in his hands hes got real skill.A 12-yard run by Trayveon Williams on A&Ms first drive made it 7-0 before Kirks first return TD pushed the lead to 14-0 later in the first. On that return, Kirk grabbed the ball and evaded the first wave of defenders before sidestepping another one, getting a couple of blocks, sprinting away from the rest of the defense and waltzing into the end zone.The kid is really punting the ball well and to do that twice in one night theres just no excuse, New Mexico State coach Doug Martin said.Trevor Knight found Kirk on a 3-yard reception in the corner of the end zone in the second quarter to leave Texas A&M up 24-0.We beat a team that we were supposed to beat and we made a bunch of big plays that we were supposed to make, Knight said. The message after the game still was we can be sharper. We can be better. We still havent played our best game yet.Texas A&M was up by 28 points early in the third quarter when Kirk added his second return score to make it 38-3. Knight was replaced by backup Jake Hubenak not long after that, and most of A&Ms starters were soon on the bench.Tyler Rogers threw for 138 yards and a touchdown and ran for 40 yards for New Mexico State (2-6).THE TAKEAWAYNEW MEXICO STATE: New Mexico State struggled to deal with the size and speed of Texas A&M and wasnt able to do much on either side of the ball. The team will savor iits open date next week to recover and regroup from this lopsided defeat. Tony Esposito Jersey. TEXAS A&M: Texas A&M handled business against a lesser opponent and got a much-needed week off from the rigors of the SEC as injuries have started to mount. Sumlin held out star defensive end Myles Garrett, who has been dealing with a leg injury, and a few other players who are battling minor injuries with consecutive conference games ahead in the next two weeks.Sumlin was impressed with how his defense held up without its best player.There were guys out there in roles that may not have been great, but they never gave up the big home run on defense, he said.POLL IMPLICATIONSTexas A&M should move up at least a couple of spots after No. 7 Nebraska and eighth-ranked Baylor lost Saturday. Knight was asked how much attention the Aggies pay to how the teams ranked ahead of them fare each week since the Aggies could have a shot at the College Football Playoff if they dont lose again and other teams fall.There is a side of it to where youre watching who wins and loses, Knight said. But if we dont take care of our business were not going to be in the conversation at the end anyway.STOPS ON STOPS ON STOPSNew Mexico State linebacker Rodney Butler, who entered the game leading the nation in tackles, added 11 on Saturday night to give him 113 this season. Butler had a season-high 24 tackles against New Mexico on Sept. 10 and has had at least 11 tackles in all but one game this year.MOVING ON UPTexas A&Ms Josh Reynolds had a 41-yard touchdown reception in the fourth quarter to give him 24 in his career and tie him with Ryan Swope for second on the schools all-time receiving touchdown list.Just an aggressive guy. Hes extremely effective, Sumlin said. Hes really increased his play this year as an overall player. He made a great decision by coming back, because hes stronger. Hes more physical.UP NEXTNEW MEXICO STATE: The team is off Saturday before returning to Sun Belt play at Arkansas State on Nov. 12.TEXAS A&M: Texas A&M visits Mississippi State on Saturday in its last road game before wrapping up the regular season with three straight games in College Station.--More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
