RIO DE JANEIRO -- Hes reserved, shes outgoing. Hes from Australia, shes from Minnesota.Sam Willoughby and Alise Post are also two of the best BMX racers in the world. Before they get married next year, theyd like to win medals at the Rio de Janeiro Games.After all, something golden to wear at the wedding would look nice.Weve done it for a lot of years now. Were pretty good at it, Post said. Were also each others biggest supporters ... because who better understands it than the person who has been there.Theyve each had plenty of big-race experience.Willoughby won the silver medal for Australia at the London Olympics in 2012, when Post finished 12th for the U.S. Theyre top contenders again this season on the World Cup tour, where Willoughby was sixth in the mens rankings and Post was third on the womens side.Willoughby is 24 and Post is 25. But in the churning, youthful discipline of BMX, theyre established veterans.Post and Willoughby grew up together on the bikes, part of a generation of racers who have watched BMX turn from a niche sport to the X-Games to an Olympic sport that was introduced as way to draw younger crowds.They were just teenagers when BMX first appeared as a medal sport eight years ago in Beijing.He kind of showed me the way on how to focus on one thing and be a professional in BMX ... and that level of competition, said Post, a former state champion gymnast.Post has helped Willoughby take a step back when needed, and take a breath.She kind of helped me open up a little bit and sometimes Ive helped her get a little bit more tunnel vision and focus at times when needed, Willoughby said Sunday. I would say, in that respect, we help each other in probably our weaker areas.And that, Willoughby, said is what makes them click.I think the best part of our relationship is that were very different personalities, he added.He can also pull a surprise or two.Willoughby proposed on Dec. 27, luring Post out on what he said would be just a magazine photo shoot in Coronado, California, outside San Diego, near where BMX racers train in Chula Vista.The moment was captured on Instagram , where Post said, After a few awkward poses, I was shocked to turn around and find him down on one knee. Theyve set a wedding date of April 15, 2017.For now, the focus is on the Summer Olympics.Me and Sam, you probably wouldnt even know that were dating or know each other on race day, Post said this weekend in Rio. Were in our zone, were doing our thing and thats the way we keep it because obviously it can be hard to separate that on race day.They both have separate training regimens and separate coaches. If theyre at the track together and have time to watch each other, Willoughby and Post might offer tips to each other if needed, or point out good or bad moves.When theyre home, and the bikes and helmets are put away, Willoughby and Post dont try to avoid talking about their day jobs. Its hard not to when BMX takes up nearly their entire lives.Theyre both intense competitors, even if they may not have the same personalities.Those polar opposites sometimes balance each other out and create a happy medium, Post said.

Today we didnt get the job done and played bad ball.Illinois managed a few big rushing plays in the first half against the Big Tens best run defense.
