college athletics • NCAA President Mark Emmert received $1.707 million in compensation in 2012-13, a year in which the governing body turned a $32 million profit. The figures come from the NCAA's latest tax returns, which were released Monday.

Jim Isch, the NCAA's chief operating officer, and top legal counsel Donald Remy also topped the $500,000 mark. Isch received $1.013 million in total compensation. Remy, who is listed as an executive vice president, was third at $619,663.

During that fiscal year, the NCAA generated $874 million in revenue — a 4 percentage-point increase over 2011-12 — and had $842 million in expenses, a 6.4 percentage-point increase over the previous fiscal year.

The tax documents also show a record $546 million was distributed to member schools in 2012-13.

Adidas, Manchester United reach deal

Soccer • Manchester United has secured the most lucrative kit deal in football, announcing that Adidas has agreed to pay $1.3 billion over 10 years to take over the sponsorship from Nike.

The deal, worth 75 million pounds ($128 million) a year from 2015, was announced after Nike decided that trebling the cost of its existing 13-year equipment supply contract was not good value for the company.

The eagerness of Adidas to make the United kits is evidence of the durability of United's brand value despite its worst-ever Premier League campaign.

Adidas currently pays around $50 million a season to Chelsea and Real Madrid, and United could make far more from the German sportswear firm than the headline figure of 750 million pounds, which is described as a "minimum guarantee."

Nike has one more season as kit maker.

Gatlin wins 100min meet-record time

Track and field • Justin Gatlin stretched his season's unbeaten streak in the 100 meters to 10 races by trashing the 20-year-old best mark of the Gugl Games on Monday in Linz, Austria. The 2012 Olympic bronze medalist finished in 9.82 seconds, scraping 0.12 seconds off the meeting record set by Davidson Ezinwa of Nigeria in 1994.

Gatlin's run was the fastest ever in Austria, though he came 0.02 short of his own best mark for the season after clocking 9.80 at the Diamond League meeting in Lausanne. The American's personal best is 9.79.

Gatlin finished runner-up to Usain Bolt at the world championships last year but the Jamaican standout hasn't competed yet this season. Gatlin's next appearance is at the Diamond League in Monaco on Friday.

Second-place Mike Rodgers timed 9.92, while Ryan Bailey took third in 10.12 for an American sweep of the podium.

In the women's 100, Carina Horn of South Africa and Carrie Russell of Jamaica shared the victory in 11.21. Shalonda Solomon of United States trailed by 0.04 in third.

Generals' ringleader Klotz dies at age 93

BASKETBALL • The basketball barnstormer who owned the Washington Generals and other teams that lost thousands of games to the Harlem Globetrotters has died. Louis "Red" Klotz was 93. The Press of Atlantic City (N.J.) reports Klotz died in his sleep Saturday at his home in Margate.

Klotz formed a working relationship with the Globetrotters in 1952, putting together the opposing teams that almost always lost. In 1971, he hit the game-winner in a rare Globetrotter loss as a 50-year-old player/coach.

In a statement posted on the Globetrotters website, team CEO Kurt Schneider said Klotz helped bring basketball and smiles to fans worldwide.

Klotz played on title-winning basketball teams in high school and an undefeated college team before playing one season with the championship-winning Baltimore Bullets in 1948.
