ias World Group playoff with Slovakia in Sydney next week.B Antworten

LEWISTON, N.Y. -- Maryland coach Brenda Frese and her sixth-ranked Terrapins found a nice way to cap their weekend getaway to upstate New York.Freshman point guard Destiny Slocum had career highs with 25 points and seven assists as Maryland cruised to a 96-64 victory over Niagara on Sunday. The Terrapins scored on seven of their first eight possessions and forced five turnovers in opening the game on a 16-2 run. They led 58-32 at halftime.It was really important that the five of us who started came out and set the tone, Slocum said. That was our mindset, that we needed to start strong.Frese had accompanied All-American honorable mention Shatori Walker-Kimbrough to the Pan-American Games in Toronto last summer and took the opportunity to visit Niagara Falls. She wondered, Why havent we ever taken our team up here? That led to Maryland scheduling its first game at Niagara, and the team visited the namesake falls on Saturday.It was sensational, Frese said.So were the Terrapins. Brionna Jones and Walker-Kimbrough each chipped in 16 points for Maryland, which failed to score 100 points for the first time this season. Still, the Terrapins were efficient on offense, shooting 53.7 percent while making a season-high 11 3-pointers on 26 attempts (42.3 percent). They assisted on 26 of 36 field goals. It was their second straight game with 26 assists.Not completely satisfied, but I thought we were very unselfish, Frese said. We let the game come to us.Maryland held Niagara to 37.3 percent shooting and forced 18 turnovers that turned into 24 points.Niagaras 64 points were the most allowed by a Maryland opponent this season. Victoria Rampado led the Purple Eagles (1-3) with 24 points and five rebounds.Their point guard is one of the best freshmen Ive seen in 20 years of basketball, Niagara coach Jada Pierce said of Slocum.BIG PICTUREAfter winning their first three home games by an average of 55 points, the Terrapins rolled to another blowout win in their road opener. Maryland went 17-2 in road/neutral games last season.POLL IMPLICATIONSThe Terrapins havent done anything to merit dropping out of the top 10 for the first time since Jan. 12, 2015. They could move up a spot after No. 2 Baylor lost at No. 3 Connecticut, but voters may not penalize the Bears for losing on the road to the four-time defending NCAA champion. Maryland has not played a ranked team yet.FRESH TALENTMore than half of Marylands points (49) came from its top-rated recruiting class. Slocum did the most damage, but fellow McDonalds All-Americans Kaila Charles (nine points), Sarah Myers (five), Stephanie Jones (four), Jenna Staiti (four) and Blair Watson (two) all contributed in their first college road game. Charles had seven of Marylands first 11 points.MILESTONEBrionna Jones passed Belinda Pearman and moved into 25th on the Terrapins all-time scoring list with 1,286 career points. Jones made 7 of 9 shots, bringing her career field goal percentage up to 63.2 percent. The Big Ten record is 60.8 percent set by Purdues Camille Cooper from 1997-2001.UP NEXTMaryland continues its four-game road trip at the South Point Shootout in Las Vegas, playing its first ranked opponent, No. 18 Arizona State, on Friday, and Washington State on Saturday. A showdown with No. 5 Louisville looms on Dec. 1.Niagara visits Cleveland State on Wednesday.Fake College Jerseys From China .

College Jerseys Black Friday . But what about the officials? Every sport has officials and they also have stories about hard work and sacrifice but their accomplishments are seldom recognized by anyone outside their inner circle.Lleyton Hewitt is hoping to reunite Nick Kyrgios and Bernard Tomic in Australias Davis Cup team for the first time in three years.Hewitt on Tuesday named Kyrgios and Tomic alongside Sam Groth and John Peers for Australias World Group playoff with Slovakia in Sydney next week.But Kyrgios is racing the clock to be fit for the grasscourt tie at Olympic Park from September 16-18 after being forced to quit his third-round US Open match with a hip injury.John Millman is on standby, with James Duckworth also in the six-man squad as an option given his ability to play both singles and doubles.Hewitt, though, is giving Kyrgios every chance to recover in time.If he does, the skipper will have top-20 stars Kyrgios and Tomic teaming up for the first time since an 18-year-old Kyrgios made his Davis Cup debut in Australias 4-1 World Group playoff win in Poland in September, 2013.Various injuries, illnesses and suspensions have prevented Kyrgios and Tomic from representing Australia together over the past three years and six ties.Obviously Id love to have those two boys leading us in the singles, Hewitt told AAP.Hopefully well have Nick. But if we dont, we still think we can put out a good outfit and we want to get back in the World Group.Weve just got to focus. Weree not taking the Slovaks lightly whatsoever.ddddddddddddBut we think we can get the job done.Slovakia are likely to be led by world No.29 Martin Klizan and the 99th-ranked Lukas Lacko.With Kyrgios in doubt, Millman is suddenly in the frame for a Cup call-up.He wasnt part of it initially purely because we had to look at doubles options as well, Hewitt said.So John Peers, Grothy and Ducks were the original squad.But Millman is certainly the next best singles player and so Ill be speaking with him and working out how Nicks going and then Ill have to make a plan on that.Im definitely covering all my bases and giving ourselves the best opportunity.After a series of devastating injuries, Millman has rebuilt his career and ranking with a fine 2016 season and was unlucky to draw eighth seed Dominic Thiem in the first round at Flushing Meadows.Millman lost in five sets and Hewitt is backing the world No.66 to do the job for Australia if asked to make his debut.I thought he played really well in New York. He would have beaten a lot of players if he didnt draw a guy like Dominic Thiem, Hewitt said.That was a really high-quality match. ' ' '
