Brock Lesnar's Daughter Announces Relationship With NFL Player
Brock Lesnar's Daughter Announces Relationship With NFL Player originally appeared on The Spun. It's been an incredible year for Colorado State shot-put star Mya Lesnar. After winning a national championship earlier this year, she's now taking the next step in life by announcing she's in a relationship. This week, San Francisco 49ers offensive lineman Drew Moss announced that he and Lesnar are officially in a relationship. The pair hard-launched the relationship on Instagram this week, with the two posing for some romantic photos at a wedding. "My handsome man," Lesnar wrote in response to Moss' Instagram post. It's no big mystery how the two of them met. Moss and Lesnar both attended Colorado State University. While Lesnar was winning titles in the shotput, Moss was emerging as one of the top offensive linemen in the Mountain West Conference. Lesnar has been a viral sports figure for years ever since fans realized that she is the spitting image of her father, legendary WWE wrestler and MMA fighter Brock Lesnar. As a result, many fans have been making all kinds of jokes about how sports leagues will try to recruit any children they may have: "League owners are about to barge into the hospital with contracts lined up as soon as they birth a child. This like Hulk and She-Hulk having a kid," one user joked on X. "Their future kid is on Mel Kiper's 2049 big board," another declared. "Buying Futures on their kids," a third wrote. "Baby is gonna come out the womb hitting 315 for reps." "Professional athlete regardless of gender." "Every college in America will offer their first offspring a scholarship pre-natal."

Kiwi teen athlete Sam Ruthe breaks two more NZ records in the US
Kiwi middle distance runner Sam Ruthe has broken two New Zealand records for the 1500m race with a fifth-place finish at an event in Los Angeles. The 16-year-old lowered his own national under-17 and under-18 1500m records with the performance during the Sound Running Sunset Tour at Occidental College's Jack Kemp Stadium. He came within 0.4 seconds of Sam Tanner's under-19 and under-20 New Zealand records and his time of 3:39.17s marked his first sub 3:40 performance. Competing in the top section of the race, Ruthe remained in contention from the start. "I went out pretty hard," he said. ADVERTISEMENT "With one lap to go the pace lights were right beside me, and I thought I was feeling quite good, but over the last lap it felt like the pace light sped up." Less than half a second separated second through fifth place, with Ben Allen of Empire Elite Track Club taking the win with a strong kick at the finish. Ruthe's performance in Los Angeles concluded a short US racing stint. Just a week earlier, he ran a sub-four-minute mile at the Prefontaine Classic in Eugene, Oregon. He said there was a learning curve when racing against more senior athletes. "They obviously race a bit smarter. Having a field this deep is obviously handy — there won't be as many breaks in the line."
