Natalie Powell claimed a bronze medal for Great Britain on the final day of the IJF World Judo Masters in Mexico. Kawann Short Jersey . Powell bounced back from a heavy defeat against world champion Kayla Harrison to secure third place in the -78kg category, while team-mate Gemma Gibbons finished fifth.The British duo had to fight each other at the quarter-final stage and it was Powell who claimed the victory - she threw her team-mate for yuko before getting the hold down and taking the contest by ippon. That left Powell to face American judoka Harrison for a place in the final, but the Briton had no answer to a fierce attack just over a minute into the bout, and an ippon throw meant victory for the world champion.Gibbons, silver medalist at London 2012, went into the repechage final against Italys Assunta Galeone and did well to claim victory via waza-ari after having fallen a yuko down in the early stages.That meant bronze medal fights for both British judoka, but Gibbons was unable to overcome world No 3 Guusje Steenhuis from the Netherlands - Steenhuis managed to get a single yuko and that proved enough for a narrow victory.But there was better news for Powell, who secured a pair of waza-ari throws against Chinas Zhehui Zhang to secure a medal in the final event counting for Olympic qualification.Powell said: Its really good to finish the qualification on a high note. Its been a tough few years and after winning the European bronze it was hard to get myself up again for another big tournament.Winning the bronze means that the points I have gained will put me into seventh seed for the Olympic Games if selected.Harrison would go on to successfully defend her title with a win over fourth-ranked Brazilian Mayra Aguiar - she was already in front when closing the fight out with an ippon 54 seconds from the end. Devin Funchess Jersey . -- The St. Johns IceCaps weathered a wild first period with the help of goaltender Jussi Olkinuora, before finding offensive inroads in the second. Trai Turner Jersey . 4 Villanova with a 96-68 drubbing on Monday. Wragge hit 9-of-14 from behind the arc, matching Kyle Korvers school record for 3-pointers in a game set in 2003, as Creighton (16-3, 6-1 Big East broke a conference record with 21 treys in the rout. http://www.thepanthersfootballpro.com/Panthers-Kurt-Coleman-Jersey/ . - The Washington Redskins have cut defensive lineman Adam Carriker and punter Sav Rocca. ATLANTA -- In a largely forgettable season, the Atlanta Braves finally have reason to gloat a bit.They swept a three-game series at Turner Field for the first time this year.And, get this: Theyve scored at least seven runs in five straight home games -- the first time thats happened since 1953.Freddie Freeman homered and the Braves broke the game open with a five-run fifth inning, beating the San Diego Padres 9-6 on Thursday.Were not having the kind of season we wanted to, Freeman said. But we want to finish strong.One day after Minnesota dipped below Atlanta to the worst record in the majors, the Braves kept on winning behind a six solid innings from Mike Foltynewicz (8-5) and another strong showing from the offense.It was the first time theyve had five consecutive home games with at least seven runs since Aug. 7-10, 1953, the teams debut season in Milwaukee.We dont want the worst record in baseball, Freeman said. Were trying to take care of business in September so we dont have that.The slugging first baseman put Atlanta up in the third with his 28th homer, a two-run liner into the right-field seats off Jarred Cosart (0-2). After Hector Sanchez homered for the Padres in the fifth, the Braves finished off Cosart in the bottom half. Freeman walked with the bases loaded, followed by two-run singles from both Matt Kemp and Anthony Recker.The Braves two previous three-game sweeps this season came on the road. Theyre still just 22-44 at the Ted, but feeling a lot better about the way theyve played since the All-Star break.Atlanta has won 20 of its last 45 games.Were not looking at the big picture, interim manager Brian Snitker said. Were just trying to put our best foot forward every day.Foltynewicz won his fourth straight decision over six starts. He went six innings, yielding just four hits though he did get touched for a pair of homers. Wil Myers went deep in the sixth, lofting a two-run shot just inside the left-field pole.It wasnt enough to keep the Padres from their seventh loss in the last nine games.Cosart lasted only 4 1/3 innings, charged with seven runs on five hits and three walks. Wes Horton Jersey. The Padres scored three runs in the ninth off Chaz Roe before Jim Johnson came on to get the final out for his 14th save.PITCHING PLANSThe Braves plan to start right-hander John Gant on Saturday in Philadelphia. Aaron Blair was initially scheduled to go, but the struggling rookie (0-6, 8.23 ERA) has been dropped from the rotation.NEW FACESBoth teams made some minor changes on the first day of expanded rosters.The Braves reinstated right-handed reliever Chris Withrow and catcher A.J. Piersynski from the 15-day disabled list, and also called up left-hander Jeb Bradley from Triple-A Gwinnett. The 26-year-old Bradley was acquired from Milwaukee in June and has never pitched in the majors. To make room for him on the 40-man roster, Atlanta transferred injured pitcher Eric OFlaherty to the 60-day disabled list.San Diego, meanwhile, called up left-hander Ryan Buchter from Triple-A El Paso of the Pacific Coast League. He has spent most of the season with the Padres, going 3-0 with a 3.00 ERA in 58 games before being sent out Aug. 20 for a brief stint in the minors.UP NEXTPadres: LHP Clayton Richard (1-3, 3.51) gets the nod Friday as the Padres begin a three-game series in Los Angeles against the Dodgers. The 32-year-old will be making his fourth start since signing with the Padres. He has not allowed an earned run in 14 consecutive innings.Braves: RHP Joel De La Cruz will again be seeking his first big league win when he starts the opener of a weekend series against the Philadelphia Phillies. The 27-year-old is 0-7 with a 4.66 ERA in 15 games -- including eight starts -- since being called up from Triple-A Gwinnett. He 0-1 with a 3.27 ERA in three appearances vs. the Phillies.---Follow Paul Newberry on Twitter at www.twitter.com/pnewberry1963 .
