MOBILE, Ala. -- EJ Manuels January couldnt have gone much better on the field. More importantly, hes hoping for a similarly happy February for his family. The Florida State quarterback passed for a touchdown and rushed for another on the Souths first two drives in a 21-16 victory over the North in the Senior Bowl on Saturday, and was named Most Outstanding Player. Now, he can try to be the MOS -- Most Outstanding Son. His mother, Jackie Manuel, who was diagnosed with breast cancer before the season, has been recovering from her final round of chemotherapy, and Manuel said shes scheduled to have surgery on Feb. 1. "Thats kind of been my motivation," Manuel said. "I call my mom every single day and tell her I love her. I never miss a day. "Theyll be sending that award home to her. I won that award for her. I went out there and played well for her. Im happy I was able to do it." And even happier to return to her side in Virginia for a few days, instead of just squeezing in Skype and Facetime sessions. It was a great finish for Manuel to a month that began with a 291-yard performance in an Orange Bowl victory over Northern Illinois. Manuel and running backs Stepfan Taylor and Mike James combined to put the game for senior NFL prospects away on the Souths final drive. Stanfords Taylor carried five times for 32 yards and caught a 6-yard pass from Manuel. Manuel converted a fourth-and-1 play on a sneak to set up a 5-yard touchdown run for Miamis James with 2:41 left. He completed 7 of 10 passes for 76 yards with a 20-yard touchdown pass to Alabama tight end Michael Williams. He also scored on a 2-yard run. Brigham Young defensive end Ezekiel Ansah received MOP honours for the South team while Purdue defensive lineman Kawann Short was the Norths top player. Miami, Ohio quarterback Zac Dysert answered with a scoring drive that ended with his 3-yard touchdown pass to Oregon running back Kenjon Barner with 23 seconds left. The two-point conversion and onside kick both failed. Ansah is a native of Ghana who initially was on the track team and now is a potential first-round pick. He had seven tackles, 3.5 behind the line, 1.5 sacks and a forced fumble. "It was fun. I came out here to work hard, with a bunch of all-star players, obviously," Ansah said. "Everyone out here is an MVP. I just came here to learn and get better." Short had three tackles, one for a loss. Taylor finished with nine carries for 53 yards for the South. Barner led all receivers with seven catches for 59 yards and gained 13 yards on three carries. It was an up and down day for most of the quarterbacks. Arkansas Tyler Wilson completed 8 of 11 passes for 40 yards for the South. Landry Jones, a four-year starter for Oklahoma, was 3-of-9 passing for 16 yards and was sacked twice. For the North, Dysert was 10 of 16 for 93 yards and was intercepted once and sacked twice. North Carolina States Mike Glennon completed half his 16 attempts for 82 yards, and Syracuses Ryan Nassib was 4 of 10 for 44 yards and threw an interception. Southeastern Louisiana defensive back Robert Alford set up Manuels 2-yard run with an 88-yard return of the opening kick. Then Manuel lofted an over-the-shoulder pass to Williams in the end zone. "The corner played the flat and big Mike ran a great route and got leverage on the linebacker," Manuel said. "I thought it was a great matchup and I just threw the ball up there and he made a great catch." Williams converted another third-down play with a 19-yard catch on the drive. Glennon and the North offence finally got things going to open the second half. He completed all three of his pass attempts for 34 yards and then UCLAs Johnathan Franklin, a finalist for the Doak Walker Award, closed the drive with a 12-yard run and a 20-yard touchdown on consecutive plays. Manuel didnt play again until the third quarter when he led the South across midfield. His fourth-down pass was deflected into the arms of Utah State defensive back Will Davis for an interception. Davis returned it 25 yards and Glennon led the North deep enough to set up a 42-yard field goal by Oklahoma States Quinn Sharp to make it 14-10 with 3:28 left in the third quarter. Former Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson continued his conversion to receiver. He lost 3 yards on a reverse but turned a screen pass from Nassib into a 14-yard gain late in the third quarter and added a 7-yard catch in the fourth. New Balance 574 Mujer Baratas . Hill participated in the teams morning shootaround, which is part of the process of passing his concussion test. But doctors had not yet cleared Hill to play. Nike Roshe Run Mujer . Still going strong, the great No. 32 is back where he belongs. "Here I am," he said. The Hall of Fame running back, who was estranged for years from the NFL team where he starred in the 1950s and 60s -- after his previous role was eliminated by former president Mike Holmgren -- was welcomed back to the Browns on Wednesday by new owner Jimmy Haslam. http://www.barataseszapatillas.com/nike-roshe-run/nike-roshe -run-flyknit.html . The 32-year-old from Lachute, Que., attacked from the back to jump from 56th to ninth after the first run and then finish 18th overall, with his teammate Mike Janyk of Whistler, B.C., close behind him in 21st.

Forsman closed with a 3-under 69 in windy conditions Sunday for his third Champions Tour title. He beat Jay Don Blake by two shots. MIAMI -- Dwyane Wade successfully lobbied to play in Miamis regular-season finale, saying he wanted to get a little more work in before the playoffs begin this weekend. He looked more than ready for another post-season run. Wade scored 21 points and handed out 10 assists, Mike Miller added 21 points and the Miami Heat wrapped up the regular season with a 105-93 win over the Orlando Magic on Wednesday night. Orlando finished with the NBAs worst record, 20-62. Miami (66-16) became the 14th team in NBA history to finish with a winning percentage over .800. The Heat have home-court advantage throughout the NBA playoffs and will open their quest for a second straight championship on Sunday against the Milwaukee Bucks in Game 1 of an Eastern Conference first-round series. "Awesome," Wade said. "Its great. Its a testament to the team being committed and being very consistent all year." The Heat were without LeBron James, who was away from the team for the day while tending to a personal matter and almost certainly would not have played even if he was in the arena anyway. Chris Bosh was in the first starting lineup the Heat submitted Wednesday, before the team changed course about 45 minutes before game time and decided to give him the night off as well. "We still have time to get into this mentally," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. Juwan Howard scored 12 points in the 900th start of his career, while Rashard Lewis scored 16 points and Ray Allen scored 10 for Miami. The Heat finished 37-4 at home, and not long after putting together a 27-game winning streak -- the second-longest run in NBA history -- the defending champs head into the post-season having won a league-best eight in a row. "Now we start the real thing," Wade said. Nik Vucevic had 20 points and 13 rebounds for Orlando. Only once have the Magic won fewer games in a season -- their inaugural year, going 18-64 in 1989-90. "This was a learning experience for most of us," Vucevic said. "Were young guys. It wasnt easy with a lot of losses. It wasnt always fun but we can take a lot from the season." The Heat surely wont mind not seeing Vucevic again until next fall. In three games against Miami this season, Vucevic -- who arrived in Orlando as part of the Dwight Howard trade last summer -- finished with 65 points and 63 rebounds, getting double-doubles in every outing. "Its not a fluke," Magic coach Jacque Vaughn said. "Hes done it on a consistent basis for us. And hes improved ... hes gotten better along the way." Tobias Harris scored 19, Beno Udrih scored 12, Andrew Nicholson scored 12, ETwaun Moore had 11 and Maurice Harkless finished with 100 for the Magic.dddddddddddd "Im thankful for being here, for the organization, the coaches, the fans," Harris said. "I just look forward to grow from it and come back next year even more ready. ... Were just building on everything to be a better team." Wade has been sidelined for much of the past couple weeks while recovering from bone bruises around his right kneecap. He announced about an hour before the game that he would play, citing a need to improve his conditioning before Game 1 of the post-season. Without James and Bosh in the lineup, he was the clear go-to guy, and responded with 17 first-half points -- his most since late February. Orlando, which has known for some time that its season was ending with the final whistle of this game, hardly seemed like a team eager to start its summer vacations. The Magic shot 57 per cent in the first half, outplayed Miami for some stretches and went into intermission down just 55-47. "Ive asked a lot of these guys," Vaughn said. The Magic cut the lead to one point on a pair of occasions in the third, before the Heat closed the quarter on a 16-7 run. And that burst came after Wade checked out for the last time in his 10th regular season. Wades final shot was a reverse layup, and he appeared to be limping slightly afterward -- though he insisted postgame that he was fine, just working his way through the last of the bruising. The Heat took no more chances, getting Wade out of the game at the next stoppage and having trainer Jay Sabol strap icepacks to each of his knees. And when the last horn went off, the playoffs -- and a chance for another title -- had finally arrived in Miami. "Regular-season games are there for a reason, and thats to improve and get better and we think we accomplished that," Spoelstra said. "It will be different. Well never be the underdog. And thats the way it should be. Our guys accept that responsibility and they know well have to prove it every single night." A year ago, the big question entering the playoffs was whether Miami was good enough to win it all. This season, it seems like the rest of the league is waiting to see who might give the Heat a challenge. "Ill be tuned in," Vaughn said. "Ill watch." NOTES: Juwan Howards start total ranks him 14th among active players (a list that excludes Rasheed Wallace, the veteran who retired earlier Wednesday). ... Allen and James are now part of a very small group -- those who have been part of 66-win seasons with two different franchises, with others in that club including Wilt Chamberlain, Robert Parish, Devean George, Ron Harper and John Salley. ... The Magic finished 46 games behind Miami in the Southeast Division standings. cheap nfl jerseys cheap soccer jerseys ' ' '
