KRASNAYA POLYANA, Russia -- Canadas Rosalind Groenewoud settled for a seventh-place finish in the womens ski halfpipe competition Thursday at the Sochi Games. The freestyle skier from Calgary had a poor first run but turned in a decent effort in the second run to finish with 74.20 points. American Maddie Bowman won gold with a score of 89.00 points on a mild evening at Rosa Khutor Extreme Park, edging Marie Martinod of France (85.40). Ayana Onozuka of Japan won bronze with 83.20 points in the sports Olympic debut. Groenewoud won a silver medal at the X Games last month, just over five weeks after undergoing double knee surgery. She won a world title in 2011. Edmontons Keltie Hansen was 13th with 66.20 points, missing the cut for the final round by just four points. . Onyshko, from Minnedosa, Man., will compete in artistic gymnastics while Hanet, from Kelowna, B.C., will compete in lawn bowling as a para-athlete. "It is exciting that our Canadian athletes are starting to arrive at the Games Village," said Chantal Petitclerc, Canadas Chef de Mission. . The third-seeded Bouchard, from Westmount, Que., was coming off a semifinal appearance at the French Open. She took the opening set before the unseeded American came back for the 2-6, 6-3, 6-3 victory. http://www.flamesauthority.com/authenti ... es-jersey/. The South Africa international, who rejoined the club last month on loan from Tottenham, opened the scoring in the sixth minute with a powerful shot into the roof of the net. . The 55th-ranked Istomin saved 11 of 14 break points to win in just over two hours, setting up a second round meeting with Australian Marinko Matosevic. It was the Uzbeks third win in three matches against fifth-seeded Kohlschreiber, the 2007 and 2012 tournament winner. . The two-time Olympic halfpipe gold medallist informed ESPN on Monday he plans to compete in Apsen, Colo.(SportsNetwork.com) - A side story to the futility of the Philadelphia 76ers is whether the citys NFL franchise will produce more wins this season. The Eagles have a 9-3 record with four games to go and the Sixers are off to a dreadful 0-16 start, the worst in team history. At least the Sixers have 66 games remaining on the schedule. Philadelphia has a very slim chance of tasting victory when the streaking San Antonio Spurs invade the Wells Fargo Center Monday night. The defending NBA champions, winners of seven straight, may rest some players because tonight is the second of a back-to-back after a win over the Boston Celtics on Sunday. The Sixers will close out a four-game homestand and are 0-9 in front of a generally sparse local crowd. They dropped a 110-103 decision to the Dallas Mavericks Saturday and were led by K.J. McDaniels, who had 21 points and 13 rebounds. Michael Cartyer-Williams posted the third triple-double of his career with 18 points, a career-high 16 assists and 10 rebounds. Alexey Shved had 18 points in the loss. Philadelphia had 24 turnovers for 27 Dallas points, and has turned the ball over 44 times in the past two games. Weve just gotta keep our group together and move them along, Sixers coach Brett Brown said. Philadelphia is two losses away from tying the 2009-10 New Jersey Nets (0-18) for the worst start to an NBA season. Sixers guard and leading scorer Tony Wroten (17.9 ppg) did not play versus the Mavs because of a knee issue and is questionable Monday. Carter-Williams (ankle) and center Nerlens Noel (hip) are probable. The 76ers, who are scoring an NBA-low 90.8 points, will visit Minnnesota Wednesday and are scheduled to play four of the next five games on the road.dddddddddddd They are 0-7 away from home. San Antonio will try to extend its winning streak to eight games in south Philly and handed the Celtics a 111-89 defeat at TD Garden. Danny Green sank 4-of-9 3-pointers en route to 18 points, while Boris Diaw and Tim Duncan scored 15 and 14 points, respectively, for the Spurs, who shot 48.2 percent and scored 66 points in the second half to Bostons 40. Kawhi Leonard scored 12 points and Tony Parker added nine and nine assists. The Spurs play the right way all the time, said Boston coach Brad Stevens. They do it for 48 minutes. They do it for 82 games. Spurs coach Gregg Popovich returned to the bench from a two-game absence following a minor medical procedure. Assistant coach Ettore Messina took his place. The Spurs opened a four-game road trip Sunday and will also visit Brooklyn and Memphis. They are 6-3 outside the Alamo City and 10-1 in the last 11 overall. San Antonio is second in opponents scoring at 92.5 ppg and has held the opposition under 100 points in seven of the last nine contests. The Spurs are climbing up the Southwest ladder with a 12-4 record, while Memphis is an NBA- best 15-2 and Houston has a 13-4 mark. Philadelphia suffered a 100-75 loss in San Antonio on Nov. 17 and Matt Bonner led the hosts with 18 points. Carter-Williams scored 16 in that one for the 76ers, who are winless in the past seven matchups between the teams. The Spurs have won three in a row in the City of Brotherly Love. Brown, of course, was an assistant under Popovich for seven seasons. ' ' ' |
