With the shot clock running down, he drove and kicked to Pusar, who buried a three from the corner, making it 64-53 with 2:17 left.

Today, such an explosion - 1,000 times more powerful than the explosion of Mount St. Helens in 1980 - would not only cover most of the U.S. with ash but also throw so much dust into the atmosphere that the world's climate could change...

In 18 minutes played, Swiatek put up nine points and six rebounds, shooting a perfect 3-for-3 from both the floor and the free-throw line. “I thought his effort was tremendous. I was very happy to see him get the minutes that he was able to get today because he’s deserved it, and he made the best use out of it,” Amaker said. Freshman Hugh Martin...
