Hot shooting cam Jones missed only two shots while scoring a game high 32 in Marquets season opening

win Monday night, the goal of the Eagles buried Stony Brook 102-62. Chase Ross scored 23,

any worries about the Eagles offense without departed stars Tyler Colick and Osso Eagodora were

eliminated. Marquets connected an almost 59% of its shots in the runaway. George Mason visits

the Pfizer forum Thursday for the Golden Eagles second contest. The Badgerman's basketball team

used a second half to power its way to a season opening 85-61 win over Holy Cross.

The Badger is trailed by a point at halftime, but outscore the Crusaders 50-25 the rest of the way.

Missouri transfer John Tanya led UW scoring with 23 points while John Blackwell added 16. Wisconsin

was 16 for 16 on its free throw opportunities last night. Coach Greg Gard says the starting lineup

is up in the air each week. That was my main message to him tonight as we go on this journey over

the next five, five and a half months, we have to be together because it's going to be different people

in different nights. Who starts in my mind? I've never talked about it and made a big deal of who

is starting. Everybody knows they need to be ready. Gard says they were down early but showed good

poise to come back. I like how we responded and battle back and got crew defensively as the game

wore on and I think warmed down significantly. So, you know, long ways to go, but I like the

response when things weren't going well early. For the Badgers, the win now propels them to Thursday's

game with another non-conference opportunity. Montana State arrives at the Cole Center.

Led by Jamaican Stillwell's 18 points and 14 rebounds, the Milwaukee Panthers defeated the

Lakeland Muskeys, 1862 in a season opener. Tim Ward led the way for the muskies with 20 points

and two blocks. Damien Lillard had another prolific scoring night, but it was his costly turnover

that played a role in Cleveland's 116-114 win over the Bucks. Milwaukee was playing without superstar

Yanis Ante de Cumpo as its losing streak reached six games. Lillard scored 36 on the night.

75 games left and I've been part of the teams that have won 16 straight, 14 straight. You know,

you just sometimes you're just getting a ditch, you know, sometimes it can happen in a middle of

the season, it can happen toward the end of the season. And I think because it's happening at the

beginning, you know, and as we got one win and six losses, it just looks different. Bobby Portis

contributed 21 points and 18 rebounds. Yanis was sidelined with a strained, abductor muscle.

The Bucks are back in action Thursday at home against Utah. And off the court, Bobby Portis's

place got broken into recently. Bucks forward, Bobby Portis posted videos to social media on Sunday,

showing several people entering his home Saturday night during the middle of the game between

the Bucks and the Cavaliers. Portis says a number of valuable items were taken and is asking for

tips and help at a personal email address. Raymond Newpert, Wisconsin Radio Network.

The Milwaukee Brewer is president of baseball operations. Matt Arnold was chosen,

Major League Baseball is executive of the year after constructing a roster that won a second

straight national essential title in the league's smallest market. Executives from all 30 MLB teams

vote on the award before the postseason. Arnold is the first Brewer official to win the honor.

Milwaukee went 93 and 69 and won the national league central by 10 games after losing manager

Craig Council to the division rival Cubs in the offseason. The Brewer's lost a three game wild

card series to the New York Amats. And quite a Monday night game last night Patrick Maholmes

threw for 291 yards and three touchdowns and Karim Hunt pounded into the in zone from two yards

out and over time to give the unbeaten chiefs a 30 to 24 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
