High school track star stripped of state title over celebration paying respect to Olympic gold medalist: ‘I would say reinstate her'
A California high school track star's post-race celebration that paid homage to an Olympic gold medalist resulted in her disqualification and the stripping of her state championship title by outraged officials. North Salinas High School sophomore Clara Adams had just crossed the finish line as the winner in the 400 meters at Buchanan High in Clovis on Saturday when the excited teen ran over to her father to celebrate, the Mercury News reported. Her proud father, David, handed his daughter a fire extinguisher, and away from her competitors, she sprayed on her shoes as if they were on fire. Advertisement 4 Clara Adams' post-race celebration resulted in her disqualification and the stripping of her state championship title. ksbw However, the moment was quickly extinguished by California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) officials, who viewed Adams' actions as unsportsmanlike and disqualified her. 'I don't know what's going through my mind right now,' Adams told the Mercury News. Advertisement 'I'm disappointed and I feel robbed. I am in shock. They (officials) yelled at me and told me, 'We're not letting you on the podium.' They took my moment away from me.' That decision was handed down minutes before the young track star was about to run the 200 meters, but because she was disqualified for what was ruled an unsportsmanlike act, Adams was not allowed to run the race where she was one of the favorites to win. Her father, who is also her sprinting coach, is adamant that his daughter did nothing wrong, and when she celebrated, she wasn't near any of her competitors in the 400m sprint. 4 Her proud father, David, handed his daughter a fire extinguisher, and away from her competitors, she sprayed on her shoes as if they were on fire. Oceanside Dolphins Track Club/YouTube Advertisement 'When she blew the fire extinguisher, the opponents were gone,' David told KSBW. 'That was our moment of celebration, and CIF officials made it about them. The crowd went crazy, they loved it, the CIF booth went crazy, they loved it. But those few guys in those jackets took offense to it, didn't like it, and made a decision based off emotions.' Adams' disqualification caught the attention of the man who made the celebration she did famous — a US Olympic gold medalist and sprinting icon, Maurice Greene. 4 Maurice Greene celebrates as teammates spray his feet with a fire extinguisher after winning the Men's 100 meter with a time of 9.86 during the Home Depot Invitational, the first invitational stop on USA Track & Field's 2004 Outdoor Golden Spike Tour on May 22, 2004 at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California. Getty Images Advertisement 'When I heard, cause it happened, and then people just started calling me 'This girl who just ran the 400 did your celebration' I was like huh? What?' Greene told the outlet. The sprinter — who took home the gold for the US in the 100m and 4 × 100m relay at the 2000 Sydney Olympics said he feels CIF officials should reconsider their decision. 'If it was away from everyone and not interfering with anyone, I would say reinstate her,' the Olympian said. 4 Her father, who is also her sprinting coach, is adamant that his daughter did nothing wrong, and when she celebrated, she wasn't near any of her competitors in the 400m sprint. Oceanside Dolphins Track Club/YouTube Despite being the fastest runner in the 400m dash on Saturday, with a time of 53.24 seconds, Adams went home empty-handed. Adams finished in first place in the 400m dash at the Central Coast Section Championships and finished first in three races at the Pacific Coast Athletic League Masters Meet in May. There have not been any other instances of disqualification for unsportsmanlike conduct in the past 20 years, according to KSBW. According to CIF's code of conduct, athletes are expected to 'be a good sport, teach and model class, be gracious in victory and accept defeat with dignity; encourage student-athletes to give fallen opponents a hand, compliment extraordinary performance, and show sincere respect in pre- and post-game rituals.'

James Harrison on taking the final step towards 'completing Wembley'
PLAY, score, win. The ultimate Wembley Stadium checklist for a player in any sport. James Harrison has done all of those things in what has been a relatively short career to date – it could be said that he has, as the youth of today would say, 'completed it, mate.' Advertisement Indeed, he did it all in one game for Featherstone Rovers back in 2021 as he touched down for a try against York City Knights to help them lift the 1895 Cup in a game played as a curtain-raiser to the Challenge Cup Final between St Helens and Castleford Tigers. However, the fact he's yet to leave the national stadium with a Challenge Cup winner's medal means there's still a piece of the jigsaw to fulfil. 'Playing there with Featherstone – we won and I scored in that one – so I've nearly completed Wembley,' he said. 'There's just the one thing missing. 'It's mad playing there. We obviously experienced it last year so now we know what to expect. Advertisement 'It's always a great occasion and historically, playing there is probably the pinnacle of rugby league in England.' James Harrison scored a try in Featherstone Rovers' 1895 Cup Final win at Wembley in 2021 (Image: Ed Sykes/ Having featured in last year's final defeat to Wigan Warriors, Harrison is now gearing up to run out onto the hallowed turf for the third time, making him something of a 'Wembley veteran.' And for a player who will always naturally be compared to his father Karl – himself a prominent name in English rugby league from the 1980s and 1990s – that's something he'll always be able to hold over the old man. Harrison Senior won Premierships and Great Britain caps during his playing days while he was also a Super League head coach at Salford, he never quite got that big day out at Wembley. Advertisement Now, though, his satisfaction comes in following the burgeoning career of his son wherever he goes – even if it hits him hard in the wallet! 'My Dad never actually got past the semi-finals in the Challenge Cup,' he said. 'With me getting to Wembley in back-to-back years, he's told me I'm costing him a fortune! 'He came out to Vegas to watch us and now it's Wembley again – the family are getting a load of minibuses to get down there so there will be a few of them.' Harrison's father Karl was a Super League head coach with Salford Red Devils having represented Great Britain as a player (Image: Simon Wilkinson/ Now, having experienced both sides of a Wembley final, the 28-year-old is desperate to make his latest big occasion more akin to his first than his last. Advertisement He was in the starting Wire side last year as they were beaten by Wigan – and he is clearly itching to right that wrong. 'Last year hasn't been spoken about really but individually, I think we've all thought about it. I certainly have,' he said. 'I got a taste of it last year and it was one of the toughest days I've had to take a loss like that. 'That being said, I can't wait to get back there now.' A dejected Harrison following last year's Wembley defeat to Wigan Warriors (Image: Simon Wilkinson/ They were not favourites against a Wigan side that ended up completing an unprecedented 'quadruple' of trophies, and they will likely play the role of underdogs again as current Super League leaders Hull KR await under the famous arch. Advertisement Much the same as Warrington's 70-year wait for a league title, the Robins' failure to win a trophy of any kind since 1985 has been the subject of terrace mockery but having established themselves among the elite, they will sense a glorious chance to silence those taunts. Harrison and his teammates are well aware of what is coming their way – indeed, they got a taste of it a fortnight ago in Super League – but he insists a confident group will be heading down the M6. 'It's going to be a great occasion – we'll take loads of fans and I'm sure Hull KR will as well,' he said. 'They're a world-class side with world-class players across the board. 'They will fancy it but with the players in our group, we fancy it too.'

Tom Daley Explains How Marriage to Husband Dustin Lance Black Has Evolved Over Time
Five-time Olympic medalist Tom Daley explained how the 19-year age gap between him and his husband, screenwriter Dustin Lance Black, has taken on a different shape since the couple first started dating more than a decade ago. Daley, 31, and Black, 50, got married in 2017 after four years together. In an exclusive interview with Us Weekly, the British diving star explained that the couple's age difference feels smaller by the year. 'One hundred percent,' said Daley, whose life and career are profiled in the new documentary Tom Daley: 1.6 Seconds. 'It's funny because the people that know us know that I'm the more mature person that kinds of runs the show in the house.' The couple share two sons, both welcomed via surrogate: Robbie, 6, and Phoenix, 2. Diver Tom Daley Shows Off 'Cardboard' and 'Anti-Sex' Beds in Olympic Village 'As we get older, I think we both align very well on what we want to achieve,' Daley added. 'We're both really big dreamers. I think that was the biggest thing for us, that we're both so supportive of each other. We don't limit the other person's dreams. We really make each other feel like we can achieve whatever we set our minds to.' Daley, who retired from professional diving after earning a silver medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics, recently aligned with Black on a full-time move to Los Angeles from Daley's native England. 'There were a number of reasons, honestly,' Daley said when asked about the family's decision to come stateside. 'Part of it was the fact that Lance moved to the U.K. for me to be able to do my diving for the longest time. He moved away from his business and his work. 'Now it's his turn' kind of vibe.' Following his retirement last year, Daley admitted it 'still feels weird' to be away from the pool in a professional capacity. 'I watch all the diving competitions,' Daley said. 'There's still part of me that's like, 'Oh, I could do that.' You know what I mean? Like, 'I could do it better than them. What are they doing? Come on. Is that really all they got?' There's still a part of me that's a bit like, 'Oof.'' Still, when asked if there was any chance he might change his mind about retirement, Daley was definitive. 'No, we're done,' he said. In the new documentary 1.6 Seconds, Daley emotionally recounts the death of his father, Robert, who died of a brain tumor in 2011, years before Daley started his own family. 'That was part of the reason to do the documentary, for them to be able to have something to look back on and get to know their grandad a little bit,' Daley explained. 'Get to know what their papa did with his whole life. I think that's something that's really important and one of the reasons the documentary happened in the first place. For my kids.' Olympian Tom Daley Reveals the NSFW Gift He Knitted for Diving Partner Noah Williams In the documentary, Daley is seen splashing around in the family pool with both of his sons. But when it comes to them potentially following in his footsteps, Daley said, 'That's on them.' 'If they want to start diving, they can tell me they want to start diving,' he noted. 'But I'm never going to push anything on them that they don't want to do. So, if they showed interest in it.' Daley continued, 'Robbie doesn't really show interest in that side of things. Whereas Phoenix is slightly more of a second child. Daredevil, crazy. You know, the feral child. There's slightly more interest.'
