WASHINGTON, D. Youth Lions Jerseys .C. -- Alabama womens basketball lost its first game of the season, falling 70-59, to Georgetown in McDonough Arena on Sunday afternoon. With the loss, the Crimson Tide stands at 7-1, while the win brings the Hoyas to 8-2 overall.Its all about coming on the road and having toughness, said Alabama head coach Kristy Curry. You need to make plays on both ends of the floor and do that with consistency, and we didnt do that today.Junior Hannah Cook led four in double figures for Alabama with 11, while junior Ashley Williams, sophomore Shaquera Wade and freshman Jordan Lewis chipped in 10 apiece. Both Lewis, fellow freshman Ashley Knight and junior Meoshonti Knight finished with a team-high seven rebounds, while Lewis dished out a season-high six assists. Georgetown was led in scoring by junior Dorothy Adomako, who had 20 points, while senior Faith Woodard recorded a double-double of 14 points and 10 rebounds.Alabama opened the game with an 8-0 run over the first 90 seconds, large in part to Cook, who knocked down back-to-back threes. From there, Georgetown scored 16 unanswered points to pull ahead by eight with 2:22 remaining in the quarter and would lead by the same margin at the end of the period, 18-10.The Hoyas lead reached double digits at the 8:10 mark of the second following a layup by sophomore Dionna White. Georgetown would go on to lead by as many as 13 in the frame before the Tide cut it to nine, thanks to nine points and six rebound from Ashley Knight. Alabama would trail by 11, 34-23, at the half.The Tide scored nine of the first 15 points of the third to cut the Hoyas lead to eight, 40-32, with 5:13 to go in the quarter. Georgetown responded with a 9-2 run over the next two minutes to give the home team a 15-point advantage, its largest of the game. Alabama chipped it down to seven with 24 seconds to go before Adomako scored the final basket to give the Hoyas a 53-44 lead heading into the final period.The Tide would come no closer than seven points in the fourth as Georgetown would outscore Alabama, 17-15 over the last 10 minutes of play.For the game, the Tide shot 30.2 percent (19-63), while the Hoyas were 50.8 percent (30-59) from the floor. Alabama outrebounded Georgetown, 47-33, and took 28 free throws compared to the Hoyas nine attempts from the line.At the end of the day we just have to finish plays, added Curry. They made shot after shot, and we didnt. We outrebounded them, 22-6, on the offensive boards. Those are energy statistics. We have to be able to make the shots on the road though, and today, we didnt.Next up, Alabama returns to Tuscaloosa for a pair of home matchups against Georgia State and Georgia Tech. Thursdays game against the Panthers will tip at 11:30 a.m. CT, while Saturdays game versus the Yellow Jackets is slated for a 2 p.m. CT start. Cheap Lions Jerseys . -- The Magic have their first victory of the new year. Wholesale Lions Jerseys . The (11-11-4) Jets are seventh in the Central Division with 26 points.  Fifth place Dallas and sixth-seeded Nashville also have 26 points, but the Stars have three games in hand on Winnipeg while Nashville has two. http://www.cheaplionsjerseyschina.com/ . Tomas Berdych and Radek Stepanek defeated Nenad Zimonjic and Ilija Bozoljac 6-2, 6-4, 7-6 (4) on the indoor hard-court at Belgrade Arena. The victory improved the Czech pairs impressive cup doubles record to 14-1. After failing to stop Stanfords Christian McCaffrey last season, UCLA will try its luck again on Saturday (8 p.m., ET) when the Bruins play host to the seventh-ranked Cardinal.McCaffrey rushed for a school-record 243 yards and finished with 369 all-purpose yards in last seasons 56-35 victory over UCLA.He has to be a tremendous focus, Bruins coach Jim Mora said. He cant be all our focus, but he has to be the main focus. In my opinion, its not even arguable -- hes the best player in college football. He was last year and he is this year. ...He does so many things so well. Hes dynamic, elusive, tough to tackle, has great physical and mental toughness. Intelligent. And what I appreciate is the way he competes. Hes a great competitor.Stanford (2-0 overall, 1-0 Pac-12) is coming off a 27-10 victory over USC.UCLA (2-1) dropped out of the national rankings after its season-opening loss at Texas A&M, but rebounded with wins over UNLV and BYU, respectively. The Bruins are second among others receiving votes in the AP poll.In addition to his happy memories against UCLA, McCaffrey has a good history at the Rose Bowl. On Jan. 1, he set a Rose Bowl-record with 368 all-purpose yards in a thumping of Iowa.In beating USC last week, the Cardinal ran the ball 47 times for 295 yards, with just 15 pass attempts. While top wide receiver Michael Rector isnt getting much action in the old-school offense, he did have a 56-yard end around for a touchdown against the Trojans.McCaffrey rushed 30 times for 165 yards against USC, also catching four passes for 73 yards -- scoring on a 56-yard catch-and-run.I think our MO is pretty much set in stone, said David Shaw, in his sixth year as Stanfords head coach. If we get a two-score lead in the second half, were going to run it. Were going to be physical. We talk about intellectual brutality; were trying to end the game with the ball in our hands.Stanford outrushed USC 295-117, with 51 yards on 111 carries coming from backup running back Bryce Love, the teams fastest player. Womens Lions Jerseys. UCLA sophomore Josh Rosen, one of the top NFL quarterback prospects in the nation, has thrown for 917 yards, with four touchdowns and four interceptions. Rosen threw for 307 yards and two touchdowns in last weeks 17-14 victory at BYU, but it was the Bruins defense that was key.UCLA held BYU to 23 yards on 25 rushes, including four sacks. Thats a standout performance against running back Jamaal Williams and dual-threat quarterback Taysom Hill.Anytime the quarterback is sacked, you have to look at the reason why he was sacked, Mora said after the game.I think as much credit should go to the secondary as it does to the front. Its a team thing. We played a ton of man coverage, and those young men did a tremendous job under a lot of stress. That allowed our rush to get there. When theyre working together like that, it allows good things to happen.A potential difference-maker in this years matchup is UCLA defensive tackle Eddie Vanderdoes, a 325-pound run-stuffer who missed last years game after suffering a torn ACL in the opener. He and 325-pound defensive lineman Eli Ankou have the kind of beef needed to counter Stanfords power attack.That ground game has taken the pressure off new starting quarterback Ryan Burns, who completed 9 of 15 passes 109 yards, with one touchdown and one interception, against USC.Stanford is in the midst of a difficult first half of the season. After this, the Cardinal plays at Washington on a short week, then hosts Washington State and goes to Notre Dame.The Cardinal has won eight in a row against UCLA, with an average margin of victory of 37-18 in the past three.UCLA, though, is 13-7 against ranked opponents under Mora, including a 4-1 mark in each of the past two seasons. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
