MEN’S BASKETBALL: Memphis is launching an investigation into whether athletic director Tom Bowen had a conflict of interest while negotiating basketball coach Josh Pastner’s 2013 raise and contract extension.

SOCCER

U.S. MEN: Teenager Christian Pulisic could join the U.S. national team for next week’s World Cup qualifier against Guatemala in Columbus, Ohio.

The 17-year-old midfielder from Hershey, Pennsylvania, made his Bundesliga debut with Borussia Dortmund in January.

Pulisic was part of the U.S. team at last year’s Under-17 World Cup. He has yet to appear for the full national team.

U.S. WOMEN: The team called up 17-year-old forward Ashley Sanchez for the first time before two exhibitions against Colombia.

Sanchez recently captained the U.S. to a berth in the 2016 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup.

OLYMPICS

WRESTLING: Russia’s wrestling team has reported “tens” of doping cases which could rule top athletes out of the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.

The head of the Russian Sports Wrestling Federation, Mikhail Mamiashvili, said the “epidemic of doping is like a catastrophe,” adding that “it could happen that we don’t have anyone left to go the Olympics.”

BRAZIL: Brazil’s economic woes are forcing officials in Rio de Janeiro to cut back at least one anti-violence program.

That means there’s not enough money to expand police “pacification” units in the violence-plagued Mare complex of 15 shantytowns near Rio’s international airport.

The U.S. consulate in Rio announced it has changed its policy on visits by staff to the shantytowns, saying “U.S. government personnel must now obtain permission from the consulate’s security office before traveling to pacified areas.”
