Jets owner Woody Johnson completes purchase of stake in Premier League club Crystal Palace
LONDON (AP) — Crystal Palace confirmed Thursday that New York Jets owner Woody Johnson's purchase of Eagle Football's shareholding in the Premier League club has been completed. 'I am honored and privileged to be joining the ownership group of Crystal Palace Football Club,' Johnson told the club website. Palace announced last month that Johnson had signed 'a legally binding contract' to buy the shares of fellow American John Textor, who had a 43% stake in the London club, with reports at the time placing the price between $220 million and $260 million. The latest club statement gave no financial details. Johnson joins chairman Steve Parish, Josh Harris and David Blitzer as a partner and director of the club, and has also signed the Premier League's Owners' Charter. 'It is an organization with a proud history, tradition, and deep roots in English football in South London, which I came to admire during my time as US Ambassador to the United Kingdom," Johnson said. Palace finished 12th last season in the 20-team Premier League. Competition dispute Johnson's arrival at Palace comes with the club in dispute with UEFA over which European competition it will play in next season after winning the FA Cup in May — its first major trophy in 120 years of existence. Palace was demoted from the Europa League to the Conference League after falling foul of UEFA's rules governing multi-club ownership, but has submitted an appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport. UEFA determined that as of March 1, Textor had control or influence in Palace and French club Lyon. Textor said he had agreed to sell his stake in Palace to Johnson, but the move came too late to satisfy UEFA. ___ AP soccer:

After open-heart surgery, this N.J. track coach with over 50 years of experience isn't done producing stars
Barry Jackson has been coaching track for 54 years. Laughing, joking and producing stars at 10 New Jersey high schools, including five schools in South Jersey. "I think everyone likes to have fun in what they do, and that was very important to me," Jackson, the assistant track coach at Eastern Regional High School in Voorhees, said. "I try to keep it humorous, but I want them to get a little lesson." Through laughs and lessons, Jackson has coached countless New Jersey state champions and even Olympic gold medalists. The 75-year-old has been an assistant track coach at Eastern Regional High School since 2016. "I just love coaching kids, and I think it's a gift that god has given me," Jackson said. "In that, he's not done with me yet. That's what's kept me going." His heart is for his athletes, but that heart started to decline after his doctor discovered a severe blockage. "He said, 'What we're going to have to do is open heart surgery,' And after he said that, my wife almost passed out," Jackson said. His first reaction wasn't about his health. "I won't be able to coach," Jackson said. After a successful surgery, Jackson endured months of occupational, physical and cardiac therapy, but like the athletes he coaches, he was ready to cross the finish line. "When I was in the hospital, I had to learn to be patient," Jackson said. "I wanted to walk up and down the hall, and let's get it done. They're monitoring you, and they'll say, 'Mr. Jackson, slow down.'" Jackson even created a circular track course in his house that he'd rigorously walk on as part of his road to recovery, while still keeping up with his athletes. "But I would talk on the phone and tell them some of the workouts," Jackson said, "and every once in a while, I would go up to watch practice." Jackson was back on the track only five months after his open heart surgery. "It felt wonderful," Jackson said. "I felt like it was a new life. It was almost a new birth." Jackson even helped coach an athlete to win three national titles this summer upon his return. In his words, he's "not done yet."
