COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The Columbus Crew and FC Dallas paused before their scoreless draw Sunday to support the recovery of a firefighter who was struck by lightning in the southwest parking lot of Crew Stadium. The Major League Soccer teams were scheduled to play on Saturday night, but their game was rescheduled after Stu Tudor was hit during a pregame storm. The 54-year-old lieutenant in the Columbus Fire Department is in critical condition in the intensive care unit of the Ohio State Medical Center. The Crew and FC Dallas held a moment of silence before their game, and fans held up signs in support of Tudor, who was off duty at the time of the strike. "Here, you have a man like that who saves lives on a regular basis, who comes out on his off day to see us play," Crew forward Justin Meram said. "For something like that to happen to him, were hoping for the best for him and his family." Dallas defender Zach Lloyd said he and his teammates were affected by the situation. "I know a lot of guys were thinking about his family and their well-being," he said. "That was tough for our group. I think we did a good job of refocusing for the game." Columbus Fire Department Battalion Chief Tracy Smith said its not known if Tudor was struck directly but he had to be resuscitated. Smith said it takes between two and three days to determine the effects of a possible lightning strike. "Were all in (Tudors) corner. Hes one of us," said Columbus coach Gregg Berhalter, who sported a small red ribbon on his shirt during the game as a sign of support. "He was certainly on our minds the last 24 hours." A brief, heavy downpour began 18 minutes into Sundays game, but it was quickly replaced by sunshine for the remainder of the match. There was a chance for more thunderstorms later in the afternoon as the temperature reached the mid-80s with high humidity. The weather was not a deterrent for Tim Hoehnke of the Columbus suburb of Bexley, who brought his family back to Crew Stadium for a second straight day. "Im not worried," he said before the game. "It was kind of a freak storm (Saturday) that popped up real quick." Stadium officials directed Hoehnkes family to go underneath the stands for cover when rain and lighting moved into the area Saturday, but he was still outside the entrance. "I saw the flash of the guy who got struck by lightning," he said. "They took care of him quickly when he got struck." A Crew spokesman said the team followed MLS policy when it learned lightning strikes were within range of the stadium and immediately ordered fans to exit the double-deck venue in which the majority of the seating is aluminum bleachers. "They handled everything quite well," Hoehnke said. "They got everybody out of the stadium all right. No one panicked." The match was not officially rescheduled until 12:45 a.m. Sunday and the crowd of 4,680 for the 2 p.m. start was far less than the sellout of 20,672 the Crew said it would have had for Saturdays match. MLS Executive Vice-President Dan Courtemanche said in a statement it is league protocol to try and play rescheduled games the next day. Crew defender Eric Gehrig had no problem with the decision to postpone the game once he heard of the circumstances. "Our minds were off soccer at that point," he said. There was a subdued atmosphere before Sundays game, and it was evident Tudor was on the minds of many. Some people paused to stare at the spot where Tudor was struck before continuing to the gates and two Columbus Division of Police officers working the stadium plaza said they visited Tudor earlier that morning. In one corner of the parking lot members of the teams support groups -- collectively known as the Nordecke -- painted black words on two gold banners an hour before the kickoff. They later moved to the northeast corner of the stadium and before the Star Spangled Banner unfurled their work, "Nordeckes with Stu" and "Get well Stu." Wholesale LeBron James Shoes .

LeBron James Shoes Free Shipping . -- Jerel Worthy and his Michigan State teammates charged across the field, holding four fingers in the air while celebrating another sweet victory over their biggest rival.Maybe the best way to ride like Shaun White is to learn from Shaun White.The worlds most famous snowboarder agreed to a deal with his coach, Bud Keene, to work with young riders at his Keenes BK Progression Camps around the United States and the world.Keene and White have teamed for two Olympic gold medals and 13 Winter X Games titles over the past 12 years. Keene has been running his snowboarding and freeskiing camps for the last three years, and starting in 2015, White has agreed to join him for a handful of camps.Weve had so much success working together, Keene said. Weve learned so much about each other and the process and we want to bring that to more boys and girls. Its not just about winning the X Games and Olympic gold medals. Its the process of self-discovery, the effort, the reward, the accomplishment and the challenge. Weve both learned a ton together.Though White is nowhere near retiring, he has long been cultivating his out-of-competition career — with sponsorship deals, his band, Bad Things, and, most recently, the majority stake he took in the Air and Style snowboard and freeskiing event that he once competed in.Working in Keenes camps is another part of that — and something White is doing to help give back to an industry that has made him a multimillionaire and a household name. Hes doing it at a time when some figures show snowboardings once-exponential growth to be slowing, and with industry leaders trying to makke it more kid-friendly.ddddddddddddI definitely want to do what I can to grow winter sport participation, White said. When people are introduced to snowboarding or skiing in the right way and have good experiences, its more likely that theyll love it and stick with it.In addition to elite camps, Keene also runs camps for beginners and intermediates.Theres a thrill you get when you help that 14-year-old girl or boy unlock things within them that they didnt necessarily know they had in them, Keene said. I get that 100 per cent as much from working with a 6- or 12-year-old as much as I do with Shaun.White finished fourth on the halfpipe at the Olympics last year — a result that came after a tumultuous winter filled with injuries and schedule changes. The setback, Keene said, hasnt diminished his competitive spirit.Hes still, hands down, the best halfpipe rider in the world, and not by a small increment, Keene said.Whites 2015 contest debut could come later this month at the Winter X Games in Aspen, Colorado.Meanwhile, hes in training and could show up, at any time, at one of Keenes camps.For a long time, Shaun and I realized we have something special and it really has nothing to do with the X Games, the Olympics or the gold medals, Keene said. Theres an energy and synergy involved in bringing out the best in him. Thats something of value to any of these kids.___On the Web: http://www.budkeene.com/bk-progression-camps ' ' '
