导出博客文章SPOKANE, Wash. -- Gonzaga held a significant size advantage over Mississippi
Valley State but the big difference was on the perimeter.The eighth-ranked
Bulldogs hit 12 3-pointers, nine in the first half, and they remained unbeaten
with a 97-63 victory over the winless Delta Devils on Thursday night.We kept
(Przemek Karnowski) from getting the ball, Mississippi Valley State coach Andre
Payne said of Gonzagas best big man. We forced them into the game we wanted.Josh
Perkins and Silas Melson had 15 points apiece for Gonzaga.All of Perkins points
came on five first-half 3s. Melson had eight points in the second half, finished
5 of 8 from the field and grabbed four rebounds.I thought once the first 5
minutes went by we settled in, Gonzaga coach Mark Few said.Nigel Williams-Goss
chipped in 13 points, five assists and three steals for the Bulldogs.The Delta
Devils had an energetic start, but the Bulldogs nine first-half 3s built a
21-point halftime lead.If people are making 3s like that, our pressure becomes
an early void, because thats what we wanted them to do, Payne said. They just
happened to be making a lot of 3s.MVSU went up by one in the early minutes, then
the barrage of 3s began. Two 3-pointers by Williams-Goss and six points from
Jordan Mathews helped the Bulldogs go up five points just 4 minutes into the
game.Reserve freshman center Zach Collins had two early dunks, both of which he
flushed while being fouled. Collins finished with 13 points and nine boards for
the Bulldogs.The Zags went an 11-2 run that included three 3s from Perkins. The
redshirt sophomore hit his fourth and fifth 3 shortly thereafter, which pushed
the lead to 20.Rashaan Surles had 13 points for the Delta Devils.BIG
PICTUREMississippi Valley State: Much of the Delta Devils early woes can
certainly be attributed to the four Top 25 teams they have faced -- all on the
road.Gonzaga: In order to sweep the remainder of its nonconference schedule, it
largely hinges on the play of Williams-Goss. The transfer guard picked up
Advocate Invitational MVP honors and WCC Player of the Week honors and is
averaging a steady 12.8 points, 5.8 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game while
shooting 45 percent from 3 and 94.7 percent from the line.POLL
IMPLICATIONSGonzaga: The Zags jumped three spots to No. 8 after winning the
Advocare Invitational and beating a winless team will likely have no effect.
Where GU could get hurt is in the RPI, where the Zags are No. 1 and MVSU is
slotted at No. 320. Now the seasons biggest early test lies ahead in Arizona,
which the Bulldogs hold a 1-7 record against. A win Saturday would give Gonzaga
its second over a ranked team.NUMBERS GAMEThe Zags most recent hike in the polls
-- from No. 11 to No. 8 -- marks the programs fifth 6-0 start since the 1958-59
season. Of the four 7-0 starts in program history, Gonzaga has followed two of
those with losses to Arizona -- the most recent example of that coming in
2014-15, a 66-63 Arizona win in overtime.FRESHMAN STANDOUTFreshman Rui Hachimura
scored a season-high 10 points in 13 minutes. The Japan native has seen limited
action this season, but has impressed Few with his early development.Hes got
such a good feel for the game and you can throw him into a situation like that,
Few said. Hes coming along. Hes very much a work in progress, but Im happy where
hes at.UP NEXTMississippi Valley State gets a two-week break before returning to
play at Seattle University on Dec. 15 and Grand Canyon on Dec. 17. The Delta
Devils play their fifth ranked opponent, No. 19 Iowa State on Dec. 20.Gonzaga
faces No. 16 Arizona at Staples Center on Saturday, then returns home to play
in-state Pac-12 opponent Washington on Dec. 7.

. The formidable trio of Canadian receivers -- individually known as Chris
Getzlaf, Rob Bagg and Andy Fantuz -- will share the field at Mosaic Stadium one
more time on Sunday.
Sylvester
Williams Jersey . This should be celebrated because it will not always be
this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days,
it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take
away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of
their season.

Tajae
Sharpe Jersey . Isner, ranked No. 14, won his eighth career singles title
and took the title in New Zealand for the second time after his victory in 2010.
The match was similar to Isners quarterfinal victory over fifth-seeded Philipp
Kohlschreiber which went to three sets, all tiebreaks and contained no breaks of
serve. LAUSANNE, Switzerland -- The International Olympic Committee on Thursday
stripped 10 athletes of medals from the 2008 Olympics after banned substances
were found during retests of samples from the Games.The IOC said the 10, nine of
whom hail from former Soviet nations, had all tested positive for various
steroids.No gold medalists were among the 10, though there were three silver
medalists from weightlifting and wrestling. Track and field was also hit, with
Greek triple jumper Chrysopigi Devetzi and Ukrainian pole vaulter Denys
Yurchenko losing their bronze medals. Yurchenkos ban could elevate Derek Miles
of the United States to the bronze-medal position.Six athletes who did not win
medals in 2008 were also disqualified.There could be another U.S. medal for high
jumper Chaunte Lowe, who originally finished sixth but is now in line to inherit
bronze.Among those disqualified Thursday were the athletes who had finished in
the two places immediately above Lowe, Russias Elena Slesarenko and Ukraines
Vita Palamar. The bronze-medal position was vacated laast month when the IOC
said Russian Anna Chicherova had tested positive for the steroid
turinabol.ddddddddddddThe IOC ruling also casts a shadow over the career of
Slesarenko, who was the gold medalist in 2004, though she will not be stripped
of that title under Thursdays ruling.The three silver medalists affected are
Azerbaijani wrestler Vitaly Rahimov, Russian wrestler Khasan Baroev and
Kazakhstan weightlifter Irina Nekrasova. Weightlifting has been by far the
worst-hit sport in retests and saw nine more athletes sanctioned Thursday,
taking the sports total for the 2008 Olympics alone to 22.Other athletes who
stand to benefit include Canadian weightlifter Christine Girard, who could move
up to the bronze position because of Nekrasovas disqualification, and Mariam
Usman, who would become only the second Nigerian to win a weightlifting medal
with bronze after Kazakhstans Maria Grabovetskaya was disqualified from third.
