The crowd was awesome. Our guys played hard. We left it all out on the fi eld. He was right about the last point. The Gators (3-3, 3-2 SEC) left their chances of a successful sea- son withering on the turf and exited The Swamp as Texas A&M’s band triumphantly played them out. Tasked with bouncing back after a Homecoming loss to LSU, Florida fell short again on Saturday night, this time by two points instead of one: Aggies 19, Gators 17. As McElwain grew more frustrated, he shifted the blame. He said the staff’s plan was solid, but the execution wasn’t. That was especially evident when McElwain was asked about Texas A&M’s 43-yard punt return that set up its game-winning fi eld goal. Shouldn’t UF have angled kicks away from Christian Kirk, ex- plosive Aggies return man? “Yeah, that’s what’s supposed to happen, and it didn’t and it came back and bit us,” McElwain said. “Obviously gave them a chance to win it in the end.” UF never trailed until the fi nal minute. But throughout the game as Texas A&M (5-2, 3-1 SEC) battled back, Florida found ways to lose its grip. Quarterback Feleipe Franks threw two intercep- tions and took unnecessary sacks when he could’ve Cecilia Lemus / Alligator Staff thrown the ball away. Poor clock management Despite a dominant performance on defense, Florida’s offense failed to outscore Texas A&M in The Swamp on Saturday caused Florida to waste a scoring opportunity at night. “I feel like the defense always does enough,” defensive lineman CeCe Jefferson (right) said after the game.

  • Claressa Shields Sport: Boxing Biography
    Name: Claressa Shields Sport: Boxing Biography: Seventeen-year-old Claressa Shields enjoyed an eventful summer prior to starting her senior year in high school. The Flint Northwestern High School senior made history simply advancing to the London Games, the first-ever in the sport of women’s boxing. The event was a culmination of years of work for she and her lifetime trainer, Jason Crutchfield, but just earning a berth at the Olympic Games wasn’t enough for this teenager. She wanted nothing but gold and with three strong wins in London, she accomplished her goal. In 2012, Claressa was titled as 2012 Olympic Gold Medalist, 2012 Women’s Continental Champion, and 2012 U.S. Team Trials Champion and Outstanding Boxer Shields took up boxing as an 11-year-old after hearing her father talk about Laila Ali. She initially thought he wanted her to box but quickly learned after asking for his permission that he wasn’t exactly keen on the idea. He eventually came around after a family vote with Shields’ stepmother, and she’s been a force to reckon with ever since. A proud Flint native, Shields wanted badly to bring something positive to her hometown, which hasn’t had much to celebrate recently. She understands the importance of being a role model to the young people in her community and has been overwhelmed by the unbelievable outpouring of support she has received since returning from London with her gold medal. She was welcomed at the airport by over 500 well-wishers and can’t go anywhere in her hometown without being stopped for photos and autographs and she refuses to disappoint anyone.

  • Two-Time Olympic Gold Medalist and NABF Middleweight Champion Claressa Shields Announces Deal with Salita Promotions
    Two-Time Olympic Gold Medalist and NABF Middleweight Champion Claressa Shields Announces Deal with Salita Promotions Two-time Olympic gold medalist Claressa “T-Rex” Shields announced today that she has signed a promotional agreement with promoter Dmitriy Salita and Salita Promotions. Already a national sports figure and role model for women everywhere, the Flint, Michigan native is in position to realize her dreams as a professional boxer. On Friday, June 16, Shields will fight at Detroit’s Masonic Temple, in her home state of Michigan, as part of Salita’s Detroit Brawl series. Shields (2-0, 1 KO), of Flint, Michigan, is the only American boxer, male or female, to ever win back-to-back Olympic boxing gold medals (2012 and 2016). In only her second bout as a professional, Shields won the NABF Middleweight Championship on Showtime’s ShoBox: The New Generation in the first-ever women’s bout to headline a premium cable telecast. The event, held at MGM Grand Detroit, was presented by Salita Promotions. “I thank Salita Promotions for the commitment they have shown to me,” said Claressa Shields. “I promise all boxing fans that I will dedicate myself to being not only the world’s #1 female boxer and #1 pound-for-pound, but also a torch-bearer for boxing and women the world over. I can’t wait to get in the ring on June 16 to continue the journey.” “Salita Promotions is to be commended for their commitment to Claressa Shields,” said Mark Taffet, Shields’ co-manager. “Dmitriy’s knowledge and expertise in Claressa’s home-base market of Detroit provides the perfect complements to Claressa’s once-in-a-century talent and determination to advance women’s boxing and change the sport of boxing forever.” “Claressa is an outstanding world-class athlete, who has the ability to transcend sports like Michael Jordan and Serena Williams,” said Dmitriy Salita.
