RIO DE JANEIRO -- Kaleigh Gilchrist is all about water polo right now. When surfing joins the Olympics in 2020, well, check back with her closer to Tokyo.The 24-year-old Gilchrist is a steady attacker for the U.S. womens water polo team, favored to win a second straight gold medal in Rio de Janeiro. But she plans to try for a pro surfing career after the Olympics.Surfing was among five sports approved by the IOC last Wednesday for the Tokyo Games, delighting Gilchrist even if she isnt quite sure what it means for her just yet.I knew they were going to announce that day. I just didnt know when, and my family texted me, `Did you hear the news? Its happening. The surfings in the Olympics. 2020. Gilchrist said. So I was kind of just overwhelmed with joy and you know it just made that long-term goal set and I am going to look for 2020.Asked if she was sure about the decision, Gilchrist left open the possibility of returning to the pool.Its tough to say. I love water polo for sure, she said after practice on Sunday. Its been a few years for me to admit it, but this is my passion. You know if things dont go as planned you never know whats going to happen. Just being a part of this Olympics is amazing, so well see.Gilchrists father, Sandy, swam for the University of Southern California and competed for Canada in the Olympics.Kaleigh Gilchrist grew up in the water, either in the pool for water polo or the beach for surfing. She starred in each sport, but began to think about surfing as a possible profession after she was selected for the USA Surf Team and then won the under-18 Surfing America USA Championship in 2009 and 2010.She played college water polo for USC, helping the Trojans win the national championship in 2013.---Jay Cohen can be reached at http://www.twitter.com/jcohenapCorey Crawford Jersey . - Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco is not a fan of his teams use of the wildcat formation, saying "it makes you look like a high school offence.

Bobby Hull Jersey . -- Anaheim Ducks defenceman Luca Sbisa will be out at least six weeks with a torn tendon in his right hand. ST. LOUIS -- Vladimir Tarasenko picked a good time to break his scoring slump.Jay Bouwmeester tied it in early the third period and Tarasenko scored the winner late in overtime to lift the St. Louis Blues to a 2-1 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday night.He looked like he had his skating legs today, Blues coach Ken Hitchcock said of Tarasenko. He was a determined player. He stayed with it. We stayed with it. When your best player stays with it, it forces everybody else to do that.Carter Hutton stopped 20 shots for his second win of the season, helping the Blues improve to 4-1-1 at home this season and give them five wins in the last six meetings with the Blue Jackets at Scottrade Center.Josh Anderson scored for Columbus, which was coming off a 10-0 win against Montreal the previous night and snapped a three-game winning streak. Curtis McElhinney finished with 28 saves.Bouwmeester ripped a shot past McElhinney from the left dot at 2:16 of the third with his first goal since Feb. 22, 2016, against San Jose.It was a good play by (Scottie Upshall), Bouwmeester said. I dont know if they were coming off a change or some sort of transition. The whole side of the ice was kind of open. Its good when you get a chance like that.Tarasenkos wrister with 43 seconds on the clock in overtime broke his seven-game goal-scoring drought.You cant give a guy like that that kind of time to come in, Hutton said. Ive been victimized by him before so it was nice to see it went in and it was a nice win for us.Even though they outshot the Blue Jackets 8-3, the Blues were held scoreless in the first period for the sixth consecutive game. The three shots by Columbus were the fewest by an NHL team this season for the first period.McElhinney came up big for the Blue Jackets with a pair of saves on Tarasenko from the slot early in the second period. McElhinney also got help from his post as Upshall hit iron with a wide-open net on a rebound attempt.ddddddddddddMaking his first start this season, McElhinney turned away the first 24 shots, before Bouwmeester snapped Columbus team shutout streak at 121 minutes, 49 seconds.I watch Nick Foligno fight (Ryan Reaves), Columbus coach John Tortorella said. I watch Mac play the way he did in net. I watched some other guys do everything they possibly can to try to win the hockey game and then I see a few of our top guys, they did not give enough.Anderson put Columbus up 1-0 with an unassisted goal with 7:05 left in the second period. A turnover by Blues defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk went right to the tape of Andersons stick, who ripped a point-blank shot by Hutton for his third goal in his last two games.Shattenkirk credited the forecheck of Boone Jenner for creating the turnover.I did a good job of getting body positioning on him and I was trying to separate from him and as I went to go get the puck to push it forward he gave me just a nice little touch right on my stick which whacked it right to the net front, Shattenkirk said. I just got to protect it a little bit better and be able to skate that out.Game notes Bouwmeester was honored before the game for playing in his 1,000 career NHL game on Tuesday at New York. ... Blues F Nail Yakupov was a healthy scratch for the first time this season. ... Columbus set a franchise record in goals in a 10-0 victory over Montreal on Friday.
