| FLIMS, Switzerland - Canadas Kelsey Rocque defeated the United States 8-4 to move into a first-place tie in the womens division at the world junior curling championships. Canada (5-2) is tied with Korea, Switzerland and Russia for top spot. Rocques rink from Edmonton led the Americans 6-4 after eight ends and scored two in the ninth to cement its third straight win. Canada finished the round-robin Sunday with games against Scotland (2-5) and Denmark (0-7). In mens action, Winnipegs Braden Calvert earned two wins, including a 6-5 decision over previously unbeaten Norway. "I guess well take the win after a game like that," said Calvert. "We got off to a bad start. I threw a really bad rock in five and we had to come back from that. "Luckily, we did and we pulled through." Canada gave up consecutive steals to tail 3-0 at the break. But Calverts rink rallied in the sixth as she made a tricky angle-raise double to score two. He followed that up with a steal of two in the seventh to go ahead. "That was huge in terms of the momentum we got from that shot," Calvert said of the sixth. "We gained a lot of confidence and basically got back at them." Canada also beat Switzerland 7-2 to improve its record to 4-3, leaving it in a three-way tie for third. "Were starting to get on a bit of a roll," said Calvert. "Were starting to gain some momentum and confidence. "We were really sharp out of the gate tonight and grabbed an early deuce. That was definitely the turning point in the game and we kept fighting and were able to pull it off. All the teams here are tough and each game is going to be a battle." Canada finishes the round-robin Sunday with games against the United States (2-5) and Austria (3-4). Kaleb McGary Youth Jersey . - Steve Stricker usually doesnt show up at a tournament on Sunday. John Cominsky Youth Jersey . Villar connected off Joe Saunders (11-14), sending a drive well over the left-field fence for his first career homer. The Astros scored six times in the first three innings to chase Saunders. http://www.falconsrookiestore.com/Falcons-Steve-Bartkowski-Jersey/ . It was just time for him to make a big play. Nicolas Batum had 20 points and 10 rebounds, Wesley Matthews scored 18 points, and the Trail Blazers overcame poor-shooting nights by two of their best players in a 94-90 victory over the New York Knicks on Wednesday. Steve Bartkowski Womens Jersey .com) - The Chicago Blackhawks take aim at their longest winning streak of the season on Sunday when they host the Calgary Flames in a battle at the United Center. Tony Gonzalez Womens Jersey . Howard hit a three-run homer with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning to lift the Philadelphia Phillies to a 6-3 win over the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday night.HOUSTON - The Houston Texans took care of business against two bad teams.Now they are moving on to face much tougher competition, starting with Sundays trip to Indianapolis, a place where theyve never won.Coach Bill OBrien doesnt have to say anything to his team about its history in IndianapolisWere well aware that we have not won there, OBrien said.The Colts are in first place in the AFC South, two games ahead of second-place Houston with three games left in the regular season. The Texans have already won five more games than they did in last years 2-14 season, but are still aiming higher.OBrien and the Texans dont talk about their possibilities for the post-season because they know theres no way theyll get there if they dont focus on each opponent.This game right here is a playoff game, OBrien said. As far as thats concerned, as far as our team, this is a big game.Houston lost to the Colts 33-28 in the first meeting this season after falling behind 24-0 in a disastrous first quarter. The Texans were forced to punt on their first three possessions in that game and the Colts recovered an onside kick to build the big lead.OBrien doesnt like to talk about the past, but he is reminding his team about its struggles in that one.The thing that happened in the last Indianapolis game cannot happen, OBrien said. If it does, we have no chance ... we cant get down like that to a really good football team and expect to win, especially on the road.The Texans have won two games in a row for the first time since the first two weeks of the season and OBrien believes his team has grown since the last game against the Colts. Houston trailed 13-10 at halftime on Sunday before rallying for a 27-13 victory over Jacksonville.ddddddddddddI thought our guys came in at halftime and really had a resolve about them that they were going to go out and win the game and that they were going to play better over the last half of the game, OBrien said. I think that has improved over the year.The Texans could have to face Indianapolis without Andre Johnson after the receiver suffered a concussion on a helmet-to-helmet hit on Sunday. OBrien said Johnson will have to go through the concussion protocol and that hell be listed day to day this week.If he cant go the Texans could rely more heavily on slot receiver Damaris Johnson, who has 250 yards receiving and a touchdown in limited action this season.That slot position is a very important position for us, OBrien said. We certainly want it to be more involved probably than it has been this year.Houstons defence was bolstered by the return of cornerback Kareem Jackson, who had missed three games with a knee injury. Its a unit that has been led all season by defensive end J.J. Watt, who had another big game on Sunday.He had three sacks against the Jaguars to give him 14 1/2 this season, which is third in the NFL. He returned a fumble by Andrew Luck for a touchdown and had two sacks the last time Houston played the Colts.OBrien knows that theyll have to try and slow down Luck if they hope to be successful on Sunday.Theyre a very, very good team, OBrien said. They have a great quarterback, great coaching staff. Its a big challenge for us. Our guys know that theyre going to have to put a lot into this week in order to go up there and meet that challenge.___AP NFL websites: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Cheap Jerseys China NFL Jerseys Cheap NBA Jerseys Wholesale NHL Jerseys Wholesale MLB Jerseys Cheap Soccer Jerseys China Wholesale NCAA Jerseys Wholesale Football Jerseys Wholesale Basketball Jerseys Wholesale Baseball Jerseys ' ' ' |
