SYRACUSE, N.
Demarcus
Walker Broncos Jersey .Y. -- Jim Boeheim stared up in frustration at the
Carrier Dome scoreboard, his No. 2 Orange in big trouble against eighth-ranked
Villanova. The Wildcats had started Saturdays game by hitting four straight
3-pointers -- three swishes by James Bell and another by Darrun Hilliard -- and
led 25-7 midway through the first half after a dunk by Josh Hart. Syracuse
struggled to create open looks and went nearly 4 minutes without a basket as the
Wildcats looked exactly like the team that had already beaten two ranked teams.
"There was no indication we were going to get going," Boeheim said. If the
Orange were frazzled by their largest deficit of the season, it never showed.
They responded with a 20-0 run over the next 5 minutes to take their first lead
and never trailed again, winning 78-62 in a game between two of nine unbeaten
teams left in Division I. "They came out on fire. They kind of caught us off
guard," said C.J. Fair, who had 17 points for the Orange despite constant
double-teams. "We knew the kind of team they are. Its hard to have a defence for
the type of offence they have for the first 5 or 10 minutes." Syracuse (12-0)
tightened its defence and the Wildcats (11-1) missed seven shots, committed
three fouls and were called for a travel before losing the ball out of bounds as
the game began to slip away. Villanova trailed 34-30 at the half, not bad
considering leading scorer JayVaughn Pinkston had only three points on 1-of-3
shooting, his only make coming on a desperation 3 at the shot-clock buzzer in
the final minute. "They weathered the storm," Villanova coach Jay Wright said.
"We hit shots. When you hit shots like that, everything looks great, but you
know youre not going to shoot that percentage for the entire game. They
weathered it and kept coming back at us. We had the lead and then we got
sloppy." Trevor Cooney led Syracuse with 21 points, Tyler Ennis had 20, and
Jerami Grant 11. Bell finished with a career-high six 3-pointers and matched his
career high with 25 points to lead Villanova before fouling out with 1:42 left.
Hart had 10 points, the only other Villanova player in double figures. Pinkston,
averaging 16.5 points, finished with three points, while Hilliard, averaging
14.4, had only five points on 1-of-7 shooting before fouling out in the final
minute. Cooney had 11 points and Fair added six in the Oranges comeback spurt,
which was capped by a driving layup by Ennis at 4:51. "It was a tough war to get
back," said Cooney, who was 5 of 8 from long range. "Getting behind like that
against a team like Villanova, its tough to come back. It shows a lot about us."
Syracuse was the third unbeaten ranked team the Wildcats had faced this season.
Villanova handed then-No. 2 Kansas its first loss of the season a month ago in
the semifinals of the Battle 4 Atlantis and came back the next night and
defeated No. 23 Iowa in overtime. "Syracuse has a really good team," Wright
said. "They really played at a high level. This is a tough place to play. I
sensed that when we came back from break we were just a little bit off. We were
in such a groove. We got a little bit better yesterday. I was hoping. In
hindsight, I would have practiced on Christmas night. We slipped. They did not."
In the second half, Syracuse scored nine straight points early and the Wildcats
committed four fouls in a 59-second span to fall farther behind. Cooneys 3 from
the top of the key gave the Orange a 47-37 lead with 16:32 left and Fairs follow
slam of a miss by Ennis kept the lead at 10. Nova took advantage of a flagrant
foul whistled against Grant midway through the period as boos rained down from
the Carrier Dome crowd of 28,135, the largest of the season. Bell sank the two
free throws and Harts 3 from the left corner closed the gap to 54-49 with 9:25
to play. Villanova closed to 56-53 at 7:02 after Bell hit a 3 from the corner
and Daniel Ochefus free throw, and wouldnt wilt. Another 3 from the corner by
Bell moved the Wildcats within 64-59 with 3:25 left, but the Orange made 14 of
16 free throws to thwart any chance of a comeback. Syracuse finished 29 of 35
from the free throw line. "We stepped up big-time," Boeheim said. "This was the
first adverse situation (this season) where we were really down a lot."

game, and were left to rue substitute Ivo Ilicevics strike against the crossbar
in the 86th minute, when he only had the goalkeeper to beat.

Jerry Blevins (1-1), and Schafer pinch ran. With a 2-2 count, Schafer ran on the
pitch and Upton dropped a single in front of Bryce Harper. Schafer already was
rounding third when Schafer bobbled the ball.

lead No.LOS ANGELES -- The Los Angeles Dodgers signed Cuban prospect Alexander
Guerrero to a $28 million, four-year contract Tuesday. The deal calls for a $10
million signing bonus payable upon approval of the contract by Major League
Baseball. Guerrero would earn $4 million in both 2014 and 2015, and $5 million
in both 2016 and 2017. There is $1 million per year in performance bonuses,
based on 500-600 plate appearances. The 26-year-old infielder defected from Cuba
earlier this year and moved to Haiti. He has been training in the Dominican
Republic, where scouts for the Dodgers saw him during workouts. "We feel
Alexander can be an offensive infielder and a solid everyday player," general
manager Ned Colletti said. "Were looking forward to him competing for a middle
infield position and becoming a key contributor in 2014." Guerreros deal
eliminates the Dodgers as a possible bidder for Robinson Cano, the New York
Yankees All-Star who is eligible for free agency and is seeking a contraact that
could approach $300 million.
Brendan
Langley Womens Jersey. Guerrero played seven seasons in Serie Nacional,
Cubas top professional league, where he was a three-time All-Star selection. In
his final season of 2011-12, he batted .290 with 21 home runs and 50 RBI in 80
games. He committed eight errors in 350 chances at shortstop for a .977 fielding
percentage. In September, he received a license from the U.S. Office of Foreign
Assets Control that allowed him to sign with a major league team. Colletti said
the Dodgers would plan on having Guerrero play winter ball. "Hes a big league
infielder that has versatility to him," the general manager said. Another Cuban,
22-year-old outfielder Yasiel Puig, had great success with the Dodgers this
season. He was called up from the minors in early June, and nearly made the
All-Star team while helping the team reach the NL championship series. To make
room for Guerrero on 40-man roster, right-hander Peter Moylan was designated for
assignment.
