LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla.
Swell Flasche Rosa . -- For much of the
night, Seton Hall had its hands full with Quinnipiac.The Pirates got 23 points
and 11 rebounds from Desi Rodriguez, but also needed a late spark from Michael
Nzei to finish off a 90-79 victory in the AdvoCare Invitational at Disney World
on Friday night.Nzei had 19 points and 12 rebounds for the Pirates (4-1),
including a crucial four-point play that gave his team some breathing room after
Quinnipiac trimmed a double-digit deficit to two with less than 10 minutes to
go.Mike was great, Seton Hall coach Kevin Willard said, adding thats hes also
been impressed by the way Tom Moore has Quinnipiac playing in this
tournament.The Bobcats (0-4) also challenged No. 11 Gonzaga in its opening
game.Tommy is doing a great job. Hes got a young team. They play hard. They play
really aggressive defense, Willard said. I told him after the game, if your kids
keep playing like that youre going to win a lot of games.Quinnipiac took an
early 10-point lead before Rodriguez scored eight points in a 10-0 burst that
jump-started Seton Hall, which outscored the Bobcats 36-19 over the final 14
minutes of the opening half to lead 46-39 at the break.The Pirates built the
lead to 15 in the second half, but didnt finally put the game away until after
Peter Kiss keyed a 13-0 run that enabled Quinnipiac to cut its deficit to
62-60.Kiss made two long 3-pointers in the burst and finished with 19 points.
Daniel Harris had 18 points and Chaise Daniels added 14 points and 11 rebounds
for the Bobcats.The tournament so far has been a step in the right direction,
Moore said. Weve been kind of thrown into the deep end of the pool against some
incredible programs. Weve played much better down here than we did back home in
our first two losses.Khadeen Carrington had 17 for Seton Hall after scoring a
career-best 28 in the Pirates opening-round loss.BIG PICTURESeton Hall: The
Pirates, who faded down the stretch in a loss to Florida in the opening round,

. One game after a miserable showing in Oklahoma City, Gay tied a career high
with 41 points and the Sacramento Kings cruised to a 114-97 victory at the New
Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night. RIO DE JANEIRO -- Isadora Cerullo got no
medal at these Olympics. A ring will have to suffice.Cerullo is a rugby player
for Brazil and her team finished ninth at the Rio Games out of a 12-team field,
well out of medal contention. When the competition was over, a venue manager
walked onto the pitch and eventually got around to asking her a question.The
manager was her girlfriend, Marjorie Enya. The question was will you marry me?
And as others surrounded them and held red heart-shaped balloons, Cerullo said
yes.Unlike the Sochi Games two years ago, where gay rights were called into
question over anti-gay laws enacted by Russias government, the Rio Games seem to
be increasingly tolerant by comparison. It hasnt been flawless -- for example,
homophobic slurs were shouted by some in the stands at a U.S. womens soccer
match as the games opened -- but theres certain signs of progress on the
inclusion front.Thats what I hope for and I feel like our society is going in
the right direction, said U.S. womens basketball star Elena Delle Donne, who
came out and announced her engagement last week. Thats not a story. Its
normal.The new normal, perhaps.Gay marriage is legal in Brazil, though tolerance
seems far from universal. One gay rights group says that on average since 2013,
about one LGBT person each day has been killed in Brazil. The organization
called Grupo Gay da Bahia calls Brazil the world champion of crimes motivated by
homophobia and-or transphobia.I know all the prejudice that exists in society
against homosexuals, said 2012 Olympic beach volleyball bronze medalist Larissa
Franca of Brazil, who is competing again in Rio. We dont choose our feelings,
let alone control them.So far in these Olympics, there seems to be far more
cheering than prejudice.Whether it was a transgender model appearing in the
athletes parade at the opening ceremony, two men kissing during their leg of the
torch relay along Copacabana Beach or the British womens field hockey team
including two teammates who are married -- an Olympic first -- it has already
been a games unlike any other for the LGBTQ community.A lot of support, Delle
Donne said.Thats as the International Olympic Committee intended, too. After
Sochi, the IOC required future Olympic host citiees to abide by rules that
forbid any kind of discrimination, including with regard to sexual orientation.
Hydro Flask Kinder. Its in the charter that
we dont accept any discrimination on grounds of race or religion and sexuality
is now included in that. But this kind of takes it even further, IOC spokesman
Mark Adams said Tuesday. Its a celebration of that and certainly made me feel
good this morning when I heard about the story. So its excellent, excellent
news.Cerullos engagement quickly made global headlines given the stage on which
it occurred. Enya appeared, gave a rather impassioned and emotional speech about
how Cerullo is the love of her life, and the couple sealed the moment with a
kiss.That certainly made her very happy, said Brazil rugby player Rachel
Kochhann, one of Cerullos teammates. We felt this joy in our group.Outsports.com
reported that there are at least 46 publicly known LGBT athletes in the Rio
Games, the highest number of any Olympics. British diver Tom Daley won a bronze
medal in the synchronized competition, with his fiance in the stands to cheer
him on -- and whatever buzz that created didnt seem to overshadow the medal
accomplishment whatsoever.Daley came out in 2013 and said hes never been
happier.Im at my most consistent, Daley said. I feel ready physically,
psychologically, everything, so Im really excited.Daley said the support hes
gotten has been empowering, and British racewalker Tom Bosworth can relate. When
Bosworth revealed his sexuality publicly last year, he said he was blown away by
the support from those who already knew and people he never met.Its actually
spurred me on, Bosworth said. Its actually given me more motivation. ... Now I
feel like Im doing it for even more people than before.For Cerullo and Enya, it
was an Olympic moment theyll never forget.The stadium was largely empty when
Enya walked onto the grass with a microphone, volunteers gathered around as she
spoke about what Cerullo means to her. The ring that Enya gave Cerullo was a
simple piece of ribbon.Gold ribbon, that is. After all, it was at an Olympics.I
wanted to show people, Enya said, that love wins.
