STILLWATER, Okla. -- Even factoring in the recent loss of senior Marcell Ateman to injury, Oklahoma State boasts a formidable group of receivers, led by James Washington.Washington had an outstanding sophomore season last year, finishing with 53 receptions -- second on the club -- and team-leading totals of 1,087 yards and 10 touchdowns, and hopes to build on that success as a junior.Everyone wants to perform better than last season, and thats something I want to do and thats something I want to see my team do, Washington said Saturday, after the team completed its first week of practice. I feel like if I just help myself get better, Im helping my team get better -- for myself, just becoming more of a leader to this team and helping us get to a Big 12 championship and hopefully getting to a national championship.The 6-foot, 205-pound Washington possesses considerable speed and an ability to outleap defenders for the ball, serving as quarterback Mason Rudolphs favorite deep threat target. Last season, eight of Washingtons touchdowns came on passes of 40 yards or more, and he averaged 20.5 yards per catch, ranking second in the Big 12 and 10th in the nation.Rudolph, entering his junior year as an experienced starter, has developed strong chemistry, both on and off the field, with Washington.Weve got a good friendship, which helps -- we took a couple of classes together this summer and he did a good job of tutoring me in accounting, said Rudolph, who is completely healthy after a broken foot hobbled him for the final two games last season -- both of which OSU lost en route to a 10-3 record and a No. 19 ranking in the final poll. Hes a good guy, hes a quiet leader, he leads by example. Hes obviously a tremendous athlete and I think hell be a first-round pick one day.But Washington is just one of Oklahoma States receiving weapons. The squad graduated last years senior leaders David Glidden and Brandon Sheperd, and lost Ateman, who was third on the squad last year with 45 receptions and 766 yards, for an indeterminate timeframe with a broken foot, but still has plenty of options.Senior Jhajuan Seales (18 receptions, 321 yards, two touchdowns) and sophomore Jalen McCleskey (29 receptions, 253 yards, three TDs) each contributed last season and are expected to take another step forward, while senior Austin Hays (22 receptions, 200 yards, one TD) and junior Chris Lacy (eight receptions, 120 yards, two TDs) are also in the mix.When Marcell got hurt, it was tough to see that happen because he worked so hard in the off-season, but all the receivers have stepped up, said McCleskey, who also returned punts last season, averaging 5.0 yards and scoring a touchdown. He was a big part of our offense, but we feel like we have the depth for everybody to step up and us not slow down.Lacy and Seales, in particular, were singled out by head coach Mike Gundy as players that have stepped up so far in practice and will fill the void, and Rudolph agreed.Weve got plenty of talent there with those outside receivers, Jhajuan Seales and Chris Lacy, two guys that can make plays all over the place, and have game experience, Rudolph said. Theyre the first guys that backed Marcell up and can play both outside positions, have done a great job. I dont think well miss a beat on offense.As for Ateman, who sustained his injury during off-season training and recently underwent surgery to repair the damage, he probably wont be on the field for the Cowboys season opener against Southeastern Louisiana on Sept. 3. At this point, Gundy isnt sure exactly when hell be available.Theyre going to bring him back by the 14th of September, and theyll start to make a decision on where hes at, Gundy said of Ateman and the teams doctors. The foot injury he has, they have to re-X-ray it. Some guys are four weeks, some guys are six weeks, some guys are 10 weeks and you dont know. It just depends on the injury.

With the first unit struggling of late and Amir Johnson - one of the teams iron men - hobbling on an injured right ankle, Patterson knew he could get the nod in a challenging matchup against one of the leagues up and coming players at his position. TORONTO -- The Toronto Blue Jays made some architectural history Tuesday night, hosting a playoff game in the open air for the first time since Bobby Cox was the teams manager in 1985.The Blue Jays had played 24 straight playoff and World Series games with the roof closed at Rogers Centre (which was originally named SkyDome) since the buildings inception in 1989, until the roof was opened for Tuesday nights wild-card game against the Baltimore Orioles.The Blue Jays made the recommendation, and it was approved by Major League Baseball.We provide them all the details we have, with regards to game-time temperature, humidity, wind and also how the forecast is expected to go over the next couple of hours, said Jay Stenhouse, the Blue Jays vice president of communications. We make our recommendation, but ultimately its their call.Stenhouse said the team is always prepared to close the retractable roof in the event of rain, a quick drop in temperature or other unexpected changes in the weather.The BBlue Jays hadnt played an outdoor postseason game since 1985, when they still called Exhibition Stadium home.dddddddddddd They lost the seventh and deciding game of the 85 American League Championship Series 6-2 to the Kansas City Royals, in the last of Coxs four seasons as Toronto manager.Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said he didnt expect the open roof to have a significant impact on Tuesdays game. The forecast called for clear skies and temperatures in the mid-60s.Its the same for both teams, Showalter said. Theyre not going to open and close it when we hit or they hit. Thats like saying, We had to play in the rain. Well, the other team did too.You dont want to dwell on it too much. When they square a ball up, it goes out of here whether the roof is open or closed, and the same with our guys. Itll be a little cooler, probably, but its the same for both teams. ' ' '
