BOULDER, Colo. -- For a team that built its reputation on stifling defence, fourth-ranked Arizona sure showed some offensive prowess Saturday night. The Wildcats routed the Buffaloes 88-61 for their first win in Boulder since 1973. They did it by holding Colorado without a bucket until 9:50 remained in the first half, then by shooting 84.6 per cent in the second half. "They whipped us tonight every which way you can whip a team," Colorado coach Tad Boyle said. Freshman Aaron Gordon shook off a poor performance at Utah last week by scoring 21 of his season-best 23 points in the second half and Nick Johnson added 20 points for the Wildcats, who made 22 of 26 shots after halftime. "Weve had a few shootarounds here, we felt comfortable in their gym, it all just clicked for us," Johnson said. It was a rare breather for the Wildcats (25-2, 12-2 Pac-12), who scrapped their way through a series of close games since beating Colorado by 12 in Tucson, Ariz., on Jan. 23, before close losses at Cal and archrival Arizona State dropped them from the top spot in the AP Top 25. After that first game in Tempe, Buffaloes forward Xavier Johnson dissed the Cats, saying, "theyre not that good." He also said that even without injured star Spencer Dinwiddie, the Buffaloes were the more talented team and he suggested the rematch in Boulder would be a blowout. He was right, but it was the Wildcats who made this one a laugher, not the Buffaloes, who were throttled by Arizonas suffocating defence and their hot shooting hands. "I dont think you have any of our players saying anything negative about Colorado, saying, Were going to win by 20," Arizona coach Sean Miller said. "We dont do that. For us, we have to play the right way. We have to compete hard. And certainly we respect Colorado." Coming off an emotionally draining win over the Sun Devils on Wednesday night that burnished their NCAA tournament credentials, the Buffaloes (20-8, 9-6) came out ice cold, missing their first 14 shots. They trailed 22-5 before Jaron Hopkins sank a 3-pointer from the left side 10:10 into the game. That sparked a 16-4 run by Colorado -- with seven points coming from the free throw line -- to make it 26-21 and force an Arizona timeout. The Wildcats settled down thanks to a baseline drive by Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and a pull-up jumper by T.J. McConnell. The only field goal by a Buffaloes starter before halftime came on Askia Bookers jumper with 2 seconds left in the first half. After a horrendous start, however, the Buffaloes clawed their way back before Gordon sank three straight layups and Johnsons jumpers helped the Wildcats pull away. In celebration of senior night, Boyle gave 7-foot centre Ben Mills his first start of his career. He took the place of Josh Scott, who had started every game since Feb. 27, 2013, when he was dealing with a concussion. Scotts absence was quickly felt as Colorado was outrebounded 6-1 and fell behind 8-1 before Scott replaced Mills 2:49 into the game. But the Buffaloes didnt turn things around right away, as the Wildcats built those advantages to 10-3 on the boards and 14-3 on the scoreboard by the 14:39 timeout. Thanks to a 12-3 advantage at the stripe, however, the Buffs trailed just 31-25 at the half after shooting 6-for-27 from the floor. Scott, who led the Buffs with 18 points, sank a jumper to open the second half that made it a four-point game, but the Buffs couldnt get any closer and the Wildcats began to pull away when Kaleb Tarczewskis 3-pointer made it 40-33. "I think we got a little jump shot-happy, but I think thats a credit to them," Scott said. "I think we turned the ball over a couple of times at some key points in the game and its mainly because they pack the paint." About the only thing the crowd had to cheer about by the end was Mills 3-pointer in the final minute, the first of his college career. The 27-point loss was the biggest at home in the Boyle era, and he said it was particularly disconcerting with ESPNs College GameDay crew in town. "Our fans were so ready for this game, for this win, and we gave them nothing," Boyle said. "Thats a sick feeling to go home with and to live with. I havent been embarrassed many times as a coach, but I was embarrassed tonight at the way our team played." His players were, too. "Were all embarrassed, man, really embarrassed," Booker said. "This is something that, whether were on the road or at home, this should never happen again." http://www.sportingkansascitymlsshop.com/Authentic-Kevin-Ell is-Jersey/ . 1 position.

NBA officials ruled the court unplayable in the Bucks final exhibition game on Oct. 25 because players were slipping, and the game was cancelled midway through the first period.ST. PETERSBURG, Florida - One moment, J.A. Happ was trying to work his way out of a second inning jam. The next, he lay at the base of the pitchers mound, having just been hit in the face by a comeback line drive off the bat of Tampa Bays Desmond Jennings. Coaches and players, the umpires, and nearly 11,000 fans in attendance looked on in stunned silence. Trainers George Poulis and Mike Frostad, with the support of medical personnel, moved quickly to stabilize and immobilize Happ. They placed the pitcher on a stretcher. Only then did the crowd make noise, rising in unison to give Happ a standing ovation. Conscious, Happ was able to raise his right hand and offer a reassuring wave. The Blue Jays won the game 6-4. It was the clubs third straight victory – first three-game winning streak of the season – and it assured the Jays of no worse than a split of the four-game series. Under normal circumstances thats a significant stat, considering Toronto had lost 17-consecutive road series to the Rays. But it wasnt significant tonight. Not after what happened to Happ. "Its devastating," said R.A. Dickey, who was in the dugout. "I could barely watch it. Ive had experience with that on the field before, not getting hit myself but with another person getting hit. You dont know what to think, really. It paralyzes you a bit because you certainly can empathize because youve been out there that close to the hitter." "It took us a few innings to regroup," said designated hitter Adam Lind. "The energy in the dugout was very sad. We werent really in the mood. I think that was obvious. Then we got some hits and that got our mind off things that were bad aand got our minds pointed in the right direction.ddddddddddddAnd I think thats all it took. I think once that happened we started to run with it." The bullpen did a masterful job over 7 2/3 innings. Aaron Loup and Steve Delabar chewed up 4 1/3 innings, leading to Casey Janssen working a perfect ninth for his ninth save. But it was Brad Lincoln who thrived under the most difficult of circumstances. He took over for Happ, allowing one inherited runner to score before recording the next seven outs virtually unscathed. "Youve just got to take what happened and think about it and then just put it behind you and still go out there and compete and play the game," said Lincoln. "Unfortunately thats part of the game, stuff happens like that, thoughts and prayers go out to him but youve still got to go out there and play the game." The Blue Jays trailed 4-1 after two innings, Adam Linds first homer of the season accounting for Torontos run. The score remain unchanged until the seventh when Colby Rasmus hit a two-run home run to cut the deficit to 4-3. Back-to-back doubles by Melky Cabrera and Jose Bautista brought home the tying run in the eighth and Maicer Izturis third homer of the season, in the ninth, put Toronto ahead for good. "Were playing good baseball, thats basically what it comes down to," said manager John Gibbons. "Another late-inning comeback; I tip my hat to them. The guys are playing good." As early Wednesday morning, Happ is resting in a Tampa Bay area hospital. The Blue Jays say he is conscious and alert. A series of tests, including a CT scan, were being performed late Tuesday evening.
