Workers prepare ahead of
the 2017 NFL football draft
April 26 in Philadelphia. A
North Carolina financial plan-
ner’s prison sentence for
stealing from pro football
players offers a cautionary
tale to young athletes set to
make millions after the draft.
Bobsledding
Cause of Holcomb’s death unclear
Scoreboard
The cause of U.S. Olympic bobsledder Steven Hol-
comb’s death will remain unclear until more tests are
completed.
An autopsy performed at Adirondack Medical
Center in Saranac Lake, New York, showed that the
37-year-old Holcomb died with fluid in his lungs, Es-
sex County coroner Francis Whitelaw said Sunday.
However, that alone was not enough to draw a con-
clusion as to why Holcomb died — and no determina-
tion will come until toxicology tests are completed.
That process can typically take several weeks.
Whitelaw said preliminary toxicology results did
not show drugs in Holcomb’s system. Whitelaw also
said there is “no suspicion of foul play,” concurring
with what USA Bobsled and Skeleton and the U.S.
Olympic Committee said shortly after Holcomb’s
body was discovered Saturday afternoon in his room
at the Olympic Training Center — where many ath-
letes reside when they are training or competing in
Lake Placid.
Holcomb was a three-time Olympian and three-
time Olympic medalist, including a four-man gold
medal from the 2010 Vancouver Games.

Associated Press
RALEIGH, N.C. - Worn out
after an away game, a former
NFL player was informed by a
bank teller that suspicious with-
drawals were siphoning away
his money. Another was per-
suaded to try to rescue a losing
investment with an additional
$700,000. A third player spent
years in courttryingto clawback
$500,000 from a misleading
real estate project.
All three were clients of fi-
nancial planner Michael Row-
an, who was sentenced to prison
on April 26 for stealing money
from wealthy athletes. It’s a cau-
tionary tale for the instant mil-
lionaires who now know where
they’ll be playing professional
football after the NFL draft but
still are figuring out how to man-
age their new wealth.
They want to avoid joining a
long list of pros who have been
steered into questionable invest-
ments, or have been swindled out
of money by advisers. In the
1980s, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar ac-
cused a former business manag-
er of mishandling millions. More
recently, New Orleans Saints
quarterback Drew Brees filed a
lawsuit claiming a former team-
mate steered $160,000 of his
money into a bogus investment.
“Athletes would typically fo-
cus on playing their sport and
turn over their financial affairs
to others,” said Matt Mitten, di-
rector of the National Sports
Law Institute at Marquette Uni-
versity. ‘And there have been all
too many cases where athletes
have lost a great deal of money”
Top college athletes often rely
on academic advisers, trainers
and coaches to manage matters
olf the field — so it’s not unusual
for them to put the same trust in
financial advisers when they
turn pro, said Tim Davis, aWake
Forest University law professor
and co-author of The Business

Chapecoense wins 1st title after air crash
SAO PAULO — Brazilian soccer club Chape-
coense has lifted its first title since the air crash that

Chapecoense successfully defended its Santa Ca-
tarina state league title on Sunday, despite a 1-0 defeat
at home against Aval It is Chapecoense’s sixth title in

2nd player in Italy reports racist abuse
MILAN — Italy’s national broadcaster has opened
an investigation after another soccer player in Italy
was the victim of racist abuse, this time while being
interviewed on five television.
Juventus defender Medhi Benatia was appearing
on a Rai show via video fink after Saturday’s 1-1 draw
against Torino. The Morocco international was con-
nected to the studio through an earpiece when he
heard a racist insult.
The incident comes just a week after Pescara mid-
fielder Sulley Muntari walked off the pitch during a
Serie A match in response to racist abuse from fans.
The insult was not broadcast but Benatia heard it
and asked: “Who said that in the background? I
heard someone talking in the background. Who said
that? I heard an insult.”
The Rai presenter then cut short the interview be-
cause of “technical difficulties.”

LONDON — Arsene Wenger got the better of
managerial rival Jose Mourinho for the first time in a
competitive game as Arsenal beat Manchester United
2-0 in the Premier League on Sunday to keep alive its

Granit Xhaka, with a deflected shot, and former
United player Danny Welbeck, with a bullet header,
scored goals in a four-minute span early in the second
half to end United’s 25-match unbeaten in the league
dating to October.

Dodge Charger R/T for his second victory at Atlanta
Dragway.
“It’s a pinch-me moment,” said Capps, the defend-

While players unions in the
major sports oversee agents who
negotiate contracts, labor law
doesn’t give unions the same
ability to regulate financial ad-
visers, Davis said. The NFL
Players Association has a pro-
gram for vetting financial advis-
ers, but it’s voluntary. The
leagues and the unions have in-
creased education efforts.
To avoid rip-offs, lawyers and
legal scholars advise players to
do research and seek advice
from their contract agents, who
often work for established firms.
“Do your homework, do your
research and find someone
who’s got experience, who’s got
integrity, and have them handle
your affairs. Not somebody’s
friend or someone you’ve met at
the bar, or a family member,”
said lawyer J.E. Cullens, who re-
presented lineman Glenn Dor-
sey in a lawsuit against Rowan.
friend Bryan Clauson.
“I think you go through that so
long that you almost lose a little — all
your confidence. There’s still things
to clean up, and there’s still things to
get a lot better at, but man, it feels
awesome to have everybody at Roush
Fenway stand behind us.”
Patrick had been packing in the
couple’s motorhome, watching the
race on television. She soon found
herself sitting on the floor, cheering
wildly over the final laps. When she
reached his car, she leaned in for an
admitted “big ol’ kiss.”
“While I never want to crash out
of a race ever, at least I was there for
the moment when he pulled in and
that’s the bright side. And I got to
watch him win,” she said.
Stenhouse started from the pole
and praised the power from his Doug
Yates-built Ford engine for the speed.
Then he used that speed to snatch the
race away with a last-lap pass of
Busch.

Nepal wants age limit for Everest
KATHMANDU, Nepal — Family and supporters
on Sunday honored an 85-year-old Nepali man who
died trying to regain his title as the oldest person to
climb Mount Everest, while officials stressed the need
to limit the age for such a daunting physical challenge.
The death of Min Bahadur Sherchan has revived
concerns about allowing elderly people to attempt to
scale peaks where the conditions are harsh and oxy-
gen level low. Nepali law requires Everest climbers to
be at least 16 but there’s no upper age limit.

Victory Lane.
It shouldn’t have gone any other
way for Stenhouse, a winner at nearly
every level who has struggled mighti-
ly in Cup because of Roush’s rebuild-
ing phase.
A two-time champion in the Xfin-
ity Series, Stenhouse has not trans-
ferred that success to the next level. Pri-
or to this year, he had just seven top-
five finishes and led just 44 career laps.
Now he’s in the All-Star race later
this month, and has earned a spot in
NASCAR’s playoffs.
“We’ve been terrible for a long
time, but we’ve been getting better
and better every race,” said Sten-
house, who took time to note he
“parked it” in Victory Lane for his late

portive and knows how hard that I’ve
worked, and to have her there was re-
ally awesome.”
Ricky Stenhouse Sr. needed a po-
lice escort.
The elder Stenhouse tried to climb
a fence along the Talladega back-
stretch and cross the track to find his
way to the celebration. When that
didn’t work, he began running along a
perimeter road. Security picked him
up, placed him in a car and ques-
tioned him. Finally vetted, he was
driven to victory lane to meet his son.
“My dad has done so much for me
in my career,” Stenhouse said. “Every-
thing that I’ve learned is from him,
and you know, making sure that you
have the right people around you is
one of the things that he’s all about,
Hockey
U.S. beats Denmark 7-2 at worlds
COLOGNE, Germany — The United States
bounced back from its surprise opening loss at the ice
hockey world championship with a 7-2 rout of Den-
mark on Sunday.
Left wing Clayton Keller of the Arizona Coyotes
scored a hat trick and Connor Hellebuyck stopped 23
shots as the Americans got their first win after Fri-
day’s 2-1 loss to Germany in Cologne.
