ERIE, Pa. David Backes Jersey . -- Stroke-play medalists Julia Potter and Shannon Johnson each won two matches Wednesday at The Kahkwa Club to advance to the U.S. Womens Mid-Amateur final.Potter, a 28-year-old reinstated amateur from Indianapolis, won the 2013 event for players 25 and older and finished second in 2014.All Im trying to do is enjoy the moment, Potter said. I know how hard it is to get back here, and take that in and hopefully take that momentum into tomorrow, as well.The left-hander beat Katie Miller, from Jeannette, Pennsylvania, in 21 holes in the quarterfinals, and topped 51-year-old Patricia Schremmer, of Honolulu, 4 and 3 in the semifinals.The 33-year-old Johnson, from Norton, Massachusetts, beat 2014 champion Margaret Shirley-Starosto, of Woodstock, Georgia, 6 and 5 in the quarterfinals, and edged Olivia Herrick, of Roseville, Minnesota, 1 up in the semifinals.Potter finished off Schremmer with par wins on 13, 14 and 15.Johnson overcame a two-hole deficit against Herrick with par wins on 11 and 12, took the lead with a par on 17 and won with a par halve on 18. They each had only one birdie, for a halve on the par-4 14th.At some point I knew I was going to get down coming into match play, Johnson said. I like this back side and knew that there was some holes coming up that I could definitely win if I made par, so that was kind of my mindset when I made the turn.Potter played at the University of Missouri and is the director of marketing for the Indiana Golf Office. Johnson is a former Indiana University player who works as a sales representative for Ping golf equipment. She has won 12 South Dakota Golf Association titles.Potter and Johnson are the first two top seeds to meet in the final in the history of the event. The winner will become the fifth medalist to win, following Carol Semple Thompson (1990), Ellen Port (2000), Potter (2013) and Shirley-Starosto (2014).Potter is in position to become the fifth multiple champion, joining Sarah LeBrun Ingram (1991, 1993, 1994), Port (1995, 1996, 2000, 2011), Meghan Stasi (2006, 2007, 2010, 2012) and Thompson (1990, 1997). She already is the only female left-handed champion in USGA history. Dustin Byfuglien Jersey . -- Anaheim Ducks defenceman Luca Sbisa will be out at least six weeks with a torn tendon in his right hand. Kevin Shattenkirk Jersey . Pence singled in the winning run with no outs in the ninth inning to give the Giants a 7-6 victory over the San Diego Padres on Sunday. http://www.hockeyteamusajerseysolympic.com/Ryan-Mcdonagh-Jersey/ . -- Gus Malzahn finally had his day in Fayetteville. BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- Nebraska quarterback Tommy Armstrong Jr. knows how good his team is. He expects everyone else to figure it out, too.After hanging on for a 27-22 victory Saturday at Indiana, Armstrong challenged the critics who contend the Cornhuskers have feasted on a soft schedule and their latest victory proves just how perilous their No. 10 ranking could be when things get tougher.We get criticized about who we play. At the end of the day, we play great teams, Armstrong said. At the end of the day, the Big Ten came out of the preseason as one of the top conferences going into the conference (season). We look at it as were going to win each (game), if we dont get respect, oh well. Were going to go out there and demand it. But if we keep winning, theres nothing anyone can say about our team.Nebraska (6-0, 3-0 Big Ten ) is off to its best start since 2001 and has won seven straight games overall, including last seasons bowl victory over UCLA.But if the conferences West Division leaders intend to stay there -- and continue their staggering climb up the rankings -- theres little doubt they must play better than they did Saturday.While the Hoosiers (3-3, 1-2) are better than previous seasons, Armstrong and the Huskers took control early and had a chance to blow out Indiana after taking a 17-0 first-quarter lead.Instead, the Huskers offense bogged down, the defense finally broke down in the second half and Terrell Newbys loose ball with 2:06 left in the game nearly ended Nebraskas winninng streak. Justin Abdelkader Jersey. The vaunted ground game averaged just 3.4 yards per carry, and Armstrong struggled, going 10 of 26 with two interceptions.The way Armstrong and the coaches saw it, beating a team that had already upset the defending Big Ten champs and seriously challenged No. 2 Ohio State last week in Columbus should be good enough to convince the doubters that Nebraska is actually that good.Im extremely excited about the will to win that this team has, how hard they play, the resiliency they show and kind of the clutch attitude and poise they keep in the fourth quarter, coach Mike Riley said. I know, and I know that you know we have a lot of football to clean up to be really, really good but its awfully good to win even with that.Especially now that the real tests are about to begin.After trying to avenge last seasons loss to Purdue next weekend, theyll face No. 8 Wisconsin and No. 2 Ohio State in back-to-back weeks. Win all three, and Nebraska wont have to lobby anyone for respect.For now, though, Armstrong insists that debate should already be over and hell keep making points until it is.Other people may laugh at us, talking about are we real or are we really a great team, Armstrong said. Each week, we come out, we win. Once we keep winning, what are they going to say then? Were not playing great teams?---Online:AP College Football: collegefootball.ap.org Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
