WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. -- Chris Buescher is a giant step closer to qualifying for the Chase for the Sprint Cup after he notched a victory at Pocono. Now, he has to take that small step and make it into the top 30 in points, the cutoff to become eligible for NASCARs postseason.I absolutely think we can get into the top 30, the rookie said Friday before practice on the road course at Watkins Glen. We really shouldnt have been out of it.Buescher emerged from the fog at Pocono on Monday to become the surprising winner in a shortened Cup race, compliments of a race strategy call by Bob Osborne, veteran crew chief of the No. 34 for Front Row Motorsports. Before his breakthrough victory, Bueschers best finish this season?had been 14th.Osborne took a gamble and kept Buescher on track while others made pit stops with 28 laps left. Once the cars were halted because of the weather, the fog and rain settled in and Buescher was declared the winner. The victory left him 31st in the points standings, six points behind David Ragan for 30th as the teams prepare for Sundays Cheez-It 355 at The Glen.Ragan was the driver who won Front Rows first race at Talladega in May 2013, 118 races ago. Ragan also helped Buescher get his career off the ground by setting him up with living arrangements, signing him to his Legends car team as a development driver and connecting him with Roush Fenway Racing.The irony of the moment is not lost on Buescher.Its funny for me, he said. David Ragan has been a huge help for me my entire career. His whole family has. Weve got to pass him now, try to outrun him. Its not going to just be him. Theres going to be a handful of them that were going to have to outrun. It just so happens that one of them is the guy that mentored me through a lot of the early stages of my stock car career.The 23-year-old Buescher is the first Cup rookie to win a race since Joey Logano at New Hampshire in 2009, and his first NASCAR victory came on a road course -- at Mid-Ohio in 2014 in the second-tier Xfinity Series.Buescher posted two Xfinity victories last season and won the series title. Hes spending his rookie season in Cup as basically the fourth driver for Roush Fenway Racing because of a shared technical alliance between the organizations. Osborne said that relationship would give his shop everything it needs in the coming weeks as the team seeks a Chase spot.I dont see anything to hold him back from getting into the top 30, said Ragan, who drives the No. 23 Toyota for BK Racing. Im certainly going to race hard. I dont want him to get there at my expense, but hes had speed of late. If he just had a little luck.With five races remaining before the Chase begins, 10 drivers have clinched spots in the 16-driver field: Brad Keselowski, Kyle Busch, Jimmie Johnson, Matt Kenseth, Carl Edwards, Kevin Harvick, Kurt Busch, Denny Hamlin, Logano and Martin Truex Jr. With one win, Tony Stewart has all but claimed one of the remaining spots.That Buescher is ready to join them is not a surprise back at the shop. The surprise is that he isnt in yet, and thats mainly because of bad luck. He has finished 30th or worse 10 times this season, including the first three restrictor plate races.It was our goal at the beginning of the season, said Buescher, who spent a day and a half in Utah this week to hone his road course skills. Were in really good shape. The last seven, eight weeks, weve been unloading with a lot better speed, running better in the race. After this weekend, were going to a lot of places for the second time. Weve got a good notebook. We feel like we have good chemistry where we can pick up speed in the next five races.Still, it promises to be full of intrigue, starting with newly paved Watkins Glen International, where strategy and fuel mileage often come into play in a race that covers just 220.5 miles. Buescher was 23rd-fastest in final Cup practice Friday.Im really happy for Bob, really happy for Chris, said Carl Edwards, who worked with Osborne at Roush. Bob and I talked a while back, and Bob made a specific point. He said, Chris is so good, people dont realize how good this kid is. Hopefully, they can get things rolling and get in the points and maybe put something together for the end of the year. Kenyan Drake Jersey .

Denny Solomona was offered to Sale and two other rugby union clubs, according to director of rugby Steve Diamond, who says his Premiership club have done nothing wrong in the signing of the record-breaking Super League winger.The Sharks confirmed the cross-code capture Tuesday morning after weeks of speculation amid a likely legal battle after the 23-year-old Auckland-born player failed to turn up for the start of preseason training with Castleford.The Tigers say they rejected three offers during the season for the former London Broncos winger, who had two years left on his contract, and are set to take the matter to the High Court.Diamond, speaking at a press conference at Sales training ground at Carrington, dismissed talk of under-hand dealings and says he is confident an agreement will be thrashed out between the clubs.Weve never wanted to go down the route of getting into any legal battles, Diamond said. We just wanted the deal done and Im sure the powers that be are getting on with that as we speak.I dont think weve done anything wrong at all to be perfectly honest. Players have agents and agents put players up on the market place. There were two other rugby union clubs that I know of who were in the market to sign Denny Solomona.Weve just got to bite our lip and get on with it and be candid. Weve got nothing to hide.Diamond says Solomona, who shot to prominence after scoring 42 tries for Castleford in 2016 but on Tuesday signed a three-year deal with Sale, will make his debut for the Sharks in Sundays Champions Cup match against holders Saracens at the AJ Bell Stadium after training with them for just over a week.The player, who is seen by Diamond as an outside centre or winger in the 15-man code, has also been registered to play in the Premiership and has received the necessary clearance from the rugby union authorities.The Sale boss says the player became available in the late summer after announcing his intention to play rugby union and apparently resigning from rugby league.I do understand Castlefords perspective, Diamond said. Hes one of their star players.What has happened to Cas has happened to me, I had three players leave me in the summer, thats the way it is.ddddddddddddennys attention was brought to me not by an agent but by fellow players, fellow Samoan lads who play here that he is friendly with.His desire was to get playing rugby union. He said he wanted to play the game he grew up with. If it wasnt a club in England, he was going to go back to Auckland in the super franchises where he came from.In all honesty, the situation has been blown out of proportion. These things happen in sport every week where players move around. Its behaving professional and getting it done.I think were at the point now where were at a bit of an impasse and Im sure before too long that will be ironed out.There are two sides to all stories. I can say from day one that Sale have acted in the best interests of Sale and have done everything legitimately by the book. I think that will come out in the wash.Diamond says he does not believe the Solomona case will set a precedent and insists he would not stand in the way of any player wishing to leave Sale. That includes former Wigan and England rugby league winger Josh Charnley, who switched codes at the end of the 2016 Super League season.If I have a player here who says to me I want to play for another club, then Id let him go, Diamond added.There are very few that make the transition from one to the other. Denny has played rugby union up to being 19 so hes got the fundamentals.I threw Josh in and hes pretty much our most consistent player at the minute. Denny needs some game time to get that. Theres no point trying to play him in A team games and you can only do so much at training so exposure is what he needs.Castleford have appointed leading London barrister Nick Randall QC - whose other clients include England captain Wayne Rooney - and Leeds-based sports lawyer Richard Cramer to fight their case and have the backing of the Rugby Football League, whose chief executive Nigel Wood has expressed his concern to both the RFU and Premier Rugby.The RFL is also investigating Solomonas agent Andy Clarke.
