OKLAHOMA CITY -- The Oklahoma State University basketball player who died in July following an outdoor team workout suffered from an enlarged heart and died of natural causes, the state medical examiners office said Friday.Forward Tyrek Coger, 22, collapsed on July 21 following a 40-minute team workout on the football stadium stairs when the temperature was 99 degrees.The Office of the Chief Medical Examiners autopsy report states that Coger died due to cardiomegaly, or an enlarged heart, and that his hearts left ventricle had become abnormally thick. It also says an abnormal accumulation of spinal fluid in the brain was a contributing factor to his death.The autopsy report does not list weather conditions at the time he collapsed as a contributing factor to Cogers death. Medical Examiners Office spokeswoman Amy Elliott did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.Coger transferred from Cape Fear Community College in North Carolina and arrived at OSU on July 5. All mens basketball players at OSU undergo a baseline electrocardiogram and echocardiogram, and Coger had been cleared for basketball activity, said Gavin Lang, assistant athletic director for media relations at OSU.Oklahoma State University, OSU Athletics and Cowboy Basketball once again send the deepest sympathies to Tyrek Cogers family and friends, Lang said in an email to The Associated Press.In an interview with the Stillwater NewsPress before his death, Coger spoke of frequent headaches during high school and said he had surgery several years ago to drain fluid from around his brain.The team noticed Coger was having issues after hed sat down after the drills, and called 911 at about 5 p.m. National Weather Service records show the temperature at that time was 99 degrees with humidity at 38 percent, meaning it felt like it was 106. Officials say Coger was pronounced dead at a hospital at 6:23 p.m.Cogers death was the latest tragedy for OSU. Last October, a driver crashed into a crowd at the homecoming parade, killing four spectators and wounding dozens. In 2011, womens basketball coach Kurt Budke, assistant Miranda Serna and two others died in a plane crash in western Arkansas. And in 2001, 10 people died in a Colorado plane crash, including two mens basketball players and six staff members. Wholesale Diamondbacks Jerseys . The defence is doing its part, too.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jozy Altidore made U.S. history.

That match almost certainly will be in Columbus, Ohio, where the U.S. has won four straight qualifiers over El Tri by 2-0 scores.No doubt in my mind, coach Jurgen Klinsmann said of the site.U.S. Soccer Federation President Sunil Gulati later tweeted: Guerra Fria?After U.S. hosts Mexico, it plays four days later at Costa Rica.Altidore, who missed most of the 2014 World Cup and all of this years Copa America because of hamstring injuries, hopes to remain on the field.Im just trying to stay healthy, man, he said.

After that, I didnt think I was going to score because theres no way after something like that. Disappointing.Coaches and teammates raved about the teenagers poise.Its crazy, Altidore said. Seventeen years old and he has a calmness when he gets the ball. He can glide by people almost effortlessly. The challenge for him is to stay hungry and keep improving and for you guys to leave him alone. He doesnt need to be reading about himself too much right now. He just needs to keep his head and keep working.Added Klinsmann: I dont want to give him too many compliments. Got to keep him down on the ground.Trinidad (3-1-2) already had clinched a final-round berth and finished two points back,, one ahead of Guatemala (3-2-1), which was eliminated despite a 9-3 rout of St.dddddddddddd Vincent that included five goals by Carlos Ruiz.Kljestan put the U.S. ahead in the 44th minute, and Altidore doubled the lead off Fabian Johnsons cross in the 59th.
