t coach Frank Klopas wasnt even the

LAS VEGAS -- New Mexico won the Mountain West Conference tournament the last two seasons, and the Lobos werent prepared to let the title go. Trailing by one with a little more than a minute left, Cameron Bairstow scored five of the Lobos last eight points to help 20th-ranked New Mexico win its third consecutive tournament title, with a 64-58 victory over No. 8 San Diego State in Saturdays championship game. Bairstow finished with 17 points, and the victory gives the Lobos the automatic berth into the NCAA tournament. The 6-foot-9 senior forward was named tournament MVP after averaging 20.3 points per game and 9.0 rebounds per game. "In the regular season San Diego State was the best team," Bairstow said. "I think in this tournament, we were the best team. (The MVP trophy) could have gone to a number of players, the guys sitting next to me. It wasnt about proving a point. You just got to understand its all about team success. Thats what it is. All the accolades that come off that are a bonus. At the end of the day its all based on team success." The No. 2 seed in the Mountain West tournament is now 6-0 all-time when playing the No. 1 seed. "I got terrific kids, a terrific team thats believed in me, taking over a team that won back to back regular season and tournament championships," said first-year New Mexico coach Craig Neal. "This is our third one. Its very special to me." It didnt come easy against the conferences No. 1 defence, as New Mexico (27-6) had its five-point halftime lead disappear when the Aztecs opened the second half on an 8-0 run, to take a 30-27 lead. Trailing 56-49 with 2:34 left in the game, the Aztecs went on an 8-0 run to go up one with 1:21 remaining. The run was culminated when Winston Shepard stole an inbounds pass, dished to Dwayne Polee II for a slam dunk. Polee was fouled and converted the three-point play. With momentum seemingly shifted, Bairstow took over, driving on Josh Adams for a lay-in while drawing the foul. Bairstow converted the three-point play to give the Lobos the lead again. Polees layup attempt at the other end didnt fall, Bairstow rebounded with 51 seconds left and Kendall Williams made a 3-pointer 30 seconds later to seal the win. Williams added 16 points for the Lobos and moved up to No. 5 all-time on New Mexicos career scoring list with 1,794 points, while Greenwood had 12. "I think the timing of it was more fortunate for us this time," Williams said. "Last game they timed it just right and we didnt have an answer for it. This time they punched us in the mouth to start (the second half), and we were able to respond throughout the half. That was the big difference." After shooting 34.8 per cent (8 of 23) from the field in the first half, the Lobos were 10 of 21 from the floor in the second half, including 4 of 9 from long-range. And despite having one of the more formidable frontcourts in the nation, led by Bairstow, San Diego State outscored the Lobos in the paint, 24-18. The Aztecs also outscored New Mexico off turnovers, 21-8, and with bench points, 16-4. In a game that featured 10 ties and 12 lead changes, New Mexicos seven point advantage at the 2:34 mark was the largest lead of the game. "This was a tremendously hard fought game between two very good basketball teams," San Diego State coach Steve Fisher said. "Were disappointed that we didnt get the opportunity to cut the nets down. But were proud of what weve done and how weve done it. "We competed from wire to wire, and we just didnt quite have enough to finish. But if we continue to play that way, well have a chance to be playing after the first weekend of the NCAA tournament. Thats our goal now." San Diego State (29-4) got a team-high 15 points from Xavier Thames, the leagues regular-season player of the year. Thames also had three assists while once again committing just one turnover. For the tournament, Thames had 16 assists versus a mere three turnovers. Joining Bairstow, Williams, Polee, and Thames on the 2014 all-tournament team was New Mexicos Alex Kirk.

Dallas Goedert Eagles Jersey .J. -- After getting permission from his 7-year-old daughter, New York Giants offensive lineman David Diehl has retired after an 11-year career that included two Super Bowl championships.COLUMBUS, Ohio - The game hadnt even begun, and it was already not Montreals night.One week after being officially eliminated from post-season contention, the Impact were lined up at Crew Stadium with a chance to damage the Crews hopes of ending a two-year playoff drought. But as a singer attempted to get the night underway with the Canadian national anthem, his microphone suddenly cut out after a few lines.An instrumental version would have to suffice, and the visitors would find no further quarter in the United States. Ethan Finlay scored in the second minute, Federico Higuain added a penalty kick in the second half and the Crew (11-9-10) remained hot with a 2-0 win against Montreal (6-18-6).Impact coach Frank Klopas wasnt even there to see the end of the game. He was ejected in the 66th minute for arguing the penalty that gave the Crew its second goal, shaking hands with the Crew coaching staff as he passed the home bench en route to the locker-room.I was just complaining, he said. It was very hard for me, the PK call that he called. I know that maybe Jeremy (Gagnon-Lapare) made some contact, but the guy is going to the corner. Theres no goal play. There was no danger. Maybe he loses the ball in the corner. The guy calls a PK. Ive never seen a softer PK call in my life.An announced sellout crowd of 20,318 was still finding its seats when the Crew found its quickest goal of the season. After midfielder Justin Meram initially lost the ball along the left sideline in the Crews attacking half, he made a second effort to win the ball back before sending a square pass to teammate Wil Trapp on the opposite side of the field.There, from the centre circle, Trapp accelerated into a wide-open middle of the field as Finlay made an attacking run. With Maxim Tissot and Jeremy Gagnon-Lapare trying to close him down, Finlay split the two would-be defenders, collected Trapps pass and blasted a right-footed effort past goalkeeper Evan Bush.ddddddddddddIt was the earliest goal allowed by the Impact this season, and for a team that entered the night winless this year when allowing at least a goal (0-13-5), it was again too much to overcome.It was a great finish that happened real quick, but it was so early that we couldnt really think about it, said Montreal midfielder Dilly Duka, who spent his first three seasons with the Crew. We just had to play like it was 0-0. Theyre a good team and they create a lot of chances. They missed some chances, but I thought we did too. I thought if we converted our chances, it wouldve been a hell of a game.Montreal has now been outscored 33-13 on the road this season and has not won away from Stade Saputo since Sept. 8, 2013 a€” a span of 19 games (0-15-4).Columbus doubled its advantage 13 minutes into the second half thanks to the officiating. After Crew defender Waylon Francis found Meram wide open along the left sideline, he was picking out a target inside the box when Gagnon-Lapare tugged the jersey of Finlay inside the area. As Finlay fell to the ground, Gagnon-Lapare was shown a yellow card and the Crew awarded a penalty kick.In the 58th minute, Higuain beat Bush to his right for his team-leading 11th goal of the season and fifth on eight penalty kicks.The Impact were awarded a penalty kick when Crew defender Tyson Wahl fouled Issey Nakajima-Farran inside the penalty area in second-half stoppage time. Marco Di Vaio took the penalty kick, but his hard right-footed effort was saved by a diving Steve Clark.I said in 30 games weve played weve had one PK called (for) us, Klopas said. I know he gave us one late, but there was another handball in the box with Tyson Wahl turning on Marcos shot. For me, to give up a PK call like that for 2-0, I dont want to go there because whatever I say is going to come back and bite me but it was a tough call on the road to go 2-0 behind after giving up a very fast goal.
