Hes got a young team. They play hard. They play really aggressive defense, Willard said. I told him after the game, if your kids keep playing like that youre going to win a lot of games.Quinnipiac took an early 10-point lead before Rodriguez scored eight points in a 10-0 burst that jump-started Seton Hall, which outscored the Bobcats 36-19 over the final 14 minutes of the opening half to lead 46-39 at the break.The Pirates built the lead to 15 in the second half, but didnt finally put the game away until after Peter Kiss keyed a 13-0 run that enabled Quinnipiac to cut its deficit to 62-60.Kiss made two long 3-pointers in the burst and finished with 19 points. Daniel Harris had 18 points and Chaise Daniels added 14 points and 11 rebounds for the Bobcats.The tournament so far has been a step in the right direction, Moore said.

SYDNEY -- Jordan Spieth feels fresh and healthy after a six-week break and says he is ready to add another Australian Open crown to his collection of titles.The No. 5-ranked Spieth won the Australian Open by 6 shots in 2014, becoming the first American in 20 years to win the tournament. He finished tied for second with Adam Scott last year.Spieth hasnt played a competitive round since helping the United States regain the Ryder Cup at Hazeltine National Golf Club on the first weekend of October.I feel very fresh. I feel as strong and healthy as Ive felt ... probably ever to be honest, Spieth told the Australian Associated Press during a practice round at Royal Sydney on Monday, adding that it was really nice taking a few weeks off, just training and only start getting back into golf the last couple weeks. Really trying to make it an offseason.Having played at The Australian Golf Club the past two years, Spieth will face a new challenge at Royal Sydney, which is near Sydney Harbour.Tree-lined, different greeen styles and types of grass, but what a cool piece of property this is, Spieth said of the Royal Sydney course at Rose Bay in the citys east.dddddddddddd The scores are just going to be dependent on weather, I think -- how hard the wind blows. If it doesnt blow, you can tear this place up, and if it does, then you can get into some trouble quickly.Spieth said his game plan wouldnt change much, although he may have to think a little bit more.Nothing really changes, other than less drivers most likely, he said. I still plan on being pretty aggressive, so Ive just got to try and figure out where all these slopes are, so when the pins are in their locations for the tournament you understand which sides to miss it on.The Australian Open starts Thursday. Matt Jones is not defending the title he won in 2015, but Scott, Geoff Ogilvy and Aaron Baddeley will be leading the local charge. ' ' '
