Crosby, Campbell, Smith make Olympics in hammer

EUGENE, Ore. (AP) -- Jessica Crosby, Amber Campbell and Loree Smith have made the U.S. Olympic team in the hammer throw.

Crosby won the U.S. Olympic track and field trials Saturday with a throw of 232 feet.

Campbell finished second and Smith finished fourth, but made the team because third-place finisher Sarah Veress didn't have an Olympic qualifying mark.
