Saturday in the Park

*Let's start with another goal-less performance from the U.S. Olympic team, which completed its preparations for the Summer Games today with a 1-0 loss to Cameroon in Hong Kong. The starters: Guzan; Wynne, Parkhurst, Edu, Orozco; Rogers, Bradley, Holden, Kljestan; Altidore, McBride. Seitz, Adu, Davies, Szetela, Feilhaber and McCarty came on at various points of the second half. The Americans' Olympic opener is Thursday vs. Japan.

A telling quote from Coach Peter Nowak:

"As I said before the start of the tournament, the reason we were here was to make progress in the way we play. Looking at this game maybe we're a still a little bit naïve about international football. Going into games like this we have to expect that they'll be physical, with a lot of contact so we have to prevail. For us, I think the second half we played much better. Progress has been made and we expect to go to Tianjin tomorrow and polish the things that we need to this week."

*Hall of Fame inductions tomorrow in Oneonta, N.Y.: women's coach Anson Dorrance, midfielder Hugo Perez and Newark-based writer Ike Kuhns. My memories of Perez are from his national team days from 1984 to 1994 (73 caps, 13 goals), but here's one of his indoor highlights:
