LOS ANGELES -- Jordin Canada wowed with moves in the lane, spectacular passes and pull-up jump shots. SUPPLY CHEAP NFL JERSEYS . UCLA coach Cori Close doesnt ever let the guard or any other player glance at the Jumbotron to check out replays, but Sunday wouldve been a good day for a watch party.Canada and her teammates will see plenty of highlights at the end of film sessions, the only time Close allows what she calls passion plays to be shown, after leading the ninth-ranked Bruins over Michigan 84-64.Canada had 16 points, a career-high 14 assists and no turnovers while Monique Billings and had 19 points and a season-high 16 rebounds. Kelli Hayes added a career-high 16 points.I dont think were close, but I think we made a huge step today, Close said.Canada is on the Naismith Trophy watch list for the best player in womens college basketball.Most of the time Im working on things I need to get better at, Canada said. I dont really like to think about stuff like that. My concern is getting better and growing.The Bruins (7-1) took a 10-0 lead and extended their home winning streak to 18 in a row dating to last season. UCLA has won 22 straight against unranked opponents.Michigan (8-3) was led by Kysre Gondrezick with 18 points and Hallie Thome with 15 points.The Wolverines were without three players -- Boogie Brozoski and Sam Trammel stayed home to prepare for exams, and Nicole Munger was out with an injured left foot.Billings had 11 points and 12 rebounds as UCLA took a 45-25 halftime lead.All five starters for UCLA scored in double figures.BIG PICTUREMichigan took a step backward as it struggled to move the ball offensively and let UCLA dominate inside. It had played well the last few games and fared much better against then-No. 10 Florida State in a 76-62 loss.UCLA did whatever it wanted offensively, getting high-percentage shots and using its stifling defense to fluster Michigan. Its performance will serve as a good warmup for its longest road stretch of the season.POLL IMPLICATIONSUCLA should stay at No. 9 or could move up a spot as No. 8 Louisville is the only team ahead of it in the rankings with two losses.WEEKEND SWEEPWith the UCLA men beating Michigan at Pauley Pavilion on Saturday and the women doing the same on Sunday, the Bruins made it a weekend sweep. The Michigan mens team sat behind the Michigan bench for Sundays game and the teams were scheduled to share a charter flight back to Ann Arbor, providing they could return as there is a snowstorm. Some players on the UCLA mens team were in attendance as well.THROUGH THE TREESMichigan tried to pack the lane with its interior defense but that didnt bother Canada, who drove the lane and scored on layups and jumpers or kicked the ball out.Mentally Ive always had that where I dont fear anyone, Canada said. Im not afraid to play anyone, thats just the mentality that I have.QUOTE OF THE GAMEUCLA played phenomenal. Ive watched a lot of film, and I dont know if they played as well as they played tonight. I thought they really clicked on all cylinders. They defended us extremely, extremely well. They played incredibly hard. They executed on the offensive end. They rebounded the heck out of the ball. Theyre a great team. -- Michigan coach Kim BarnesUP NEXTMichigan: Just finished seven consecutive road games away from the Crisler Center and returns home for four consecutive games against Ohio, Vermont, American and Rutgers.UCLA: Has feasted on a home-heavy schedule and now hit the road for three consecutive games -- at UC Santa Barbara, South Carolina and North Carolina AT&T. WHOLESALE NFL JERSEYS CHINA . The Croatian served 21 aces and hit 42 winners against Sijsling, who double-faulted to give Cilic a 4-3 lead in the deciding set.

Marie, Ont., team took control of the game early. ST. LOUIS -- The St. Louis Cardinals have activated Kevin Siegrist from the 15-day disabled list, adding a left-handed reliever to the mix for the first series after the All-Star break.They havent ruled out adding top prospect Alex Reyes, whose hit 101 mph while striking out four in two innings starting for Team World in the Futures Game.General manager John Mozeliak said Friday that the 21-year-old Reyes, who is at Triple-A Memphis, will likely be a starter in the majors. The GM said its possible the Cardinals could add Reyes for bullpen help or as part of a six-man rotation, or even to provide a break for one of the other members of the rotation.Bullpen is a need for the team heading into the Aug. 1 trade deadline.At some point Reyes could come up here and work out of the bullpen or at some point we could decide to give him a start or two, Mozeliak said. I think we just want to be open-minded as we approach the next couple weeks.Mozeliak thought it might be more difficult to make deals this year because its tough to determine which spot would benefit from an upgrade.I think it might be a little bit harder than some years where its just very glaring what we need to do, the GM said.The Cardinals will be without All-Star Matt Carpenter, one of the top leadoff men in the majors, for about a month with a strained right oblique. NFL JERSEYS OUTLET. First baseman-outfielder Brandon Moss (sprained ankle) is still wearing a boot so hes likely not close to returning.Both Mozeliak and manager Mike Matheny remained bullish on the Cardinals chances of contending for a playoff spot. They led the majors with 100 wins last year and have been to the postseason five consecutive years.You think I changed my mind at the All-Star break? Matheny joked. No, I wont back off what I think of this club and who we are. Nothings going to change my mind on that, and nothing should change their minds.Right-handed reliever Sam Tuivailala was optioned to Memphis.Siegrist, who turns 27 Wednesday, has been out since June 30 with mononucleosis. He was 5-2, tied for the National League lead in victories by a reliever.Siegrist had a 2.78 ERA and one save in 35 appearances covering 32 1/3 innings with 34 strikeouts.The 23-year-old Tuivailala played in three games from July 3-6, allowing three runs in two innings.
