Our focus right now is winning races and trying to get to second in points.&#8220;           ]]></description>

Virginia&#8217;s football practices this week were conducted in sweats, not because the temperature was low in Charlottesville, but rather to try to imitate the heat the Wahoos will face today in Miami. &#8220;It&#8217;s hard to simulate, but we&#8217;re trying to get as close to it as we can here,&#8220; receiver Vic Hall said. That said, it would be hard to find a player who gripes about a November trip to South Florida. The Cavs got their fun in the sun yesterday, now this afternoon it&#8217;s down to business against a Miami team that dodged a bullet&#8212;in the form of a 60-yard field goal&#8212;last week against Wake Forest.           ]]></description>

FORT WORTH, Texas - Jeff Gordon won his first Sprint Cup pole of the season with a fast lap of 191.117 yesterday at Texas Motor Speedway, where the four-time champion won his only race of 2009 in April. It is the 68th career pole for Gordon, who is third in the points standings. Dale Earnhardt Jr. says Danica Patrick would be good for NASCAR, but there&#8217;s nothing new to report on the IRL star joining his team.           ]]></description>

CHICAGO&#8212;The Chicago White Sox acquired Mark Teahen from the Kansas City Royals for Chris Getz and Josh Fields.

Teahen batted .271 with a career-high 34 doubles, 12 home runs and 50 RBI in 144 games in 2009, battling a sore back in the final month of the season.

INDIANAPOLIS - The injury bug is still haunting the Indianapolis Colts. Cornerback Marlin Jackson and safety Bob Sanders were lost for the season yesterday as the team placed them on injured reserve. Jackson, who missed the second half of the 2008 season after injuring his right knee during practice, suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury to his left knee during a non-contact drill Wednesday. He had been rehabbing the knee after he was hurt against Seattle on Oct. 4.           ]]></description>

Ever since the discovery of the wildcat offense, it&#8217;s been difficult to take Miami&#8217;s Ronnie Brown out of any fantasy lineup. This may be the week where you want to show him the bench, though. Brown is coming off a 27-yard game - which ties his worst output in 21 games since the unveiling of the high school-style scheme - and returns to the stadium where it all began. Tomorrow, he&#8217;ll face the Patriots, who surely are still bitter over his 113 yards and four TDs against them in the wildcat&#8217;s debut last year.           ]]></description>

2 Finish strong . The fourth quarter is the only time this year where U.Va. is being outscored&#8212;by a 69-41 margin. The Cavs have to find a way to preserve leads in the game&#8217;s final 15 minutes, which is going to involve keeping the offense on the field more in the first 45 minutes. If the defense is consistently asked to play more, lack of depth on the unit will mean fatigue late in games.            ]]></description>

Branden Williams had a pressing question during the postgame gathering of the L.C. Bird football team. &#8220;Who dumped the water bucket so quick?&#8220; Williams wanted to know.

QUICK KICKS Score: No.22 Virginia Tech 16, East Carolina 3 For starters: The Hokies continued a troubling trend to start the game. They got into East Carolina territory on three of their first four drives and came away with two field goals. They finally broke through on their sixth drive, marching 79 yards in 12 plays and 5:27 for a touchdown. Turning point: It had to be that 79-yard touchdown drive, from which the Pirates were never able to come back. Of course, Tech&#8217;s defense helped by holding them to 95 yards in the second half. Star of the game: Ryan Williams. Virginia Tech&#8217;s redshirt freshman tailback bounced back from a fumble that helped North Carolina win last week by running for a season-best 179 yards. Big picture: The Hokies still can win 10 games for the sixth consecutive season if they win their final three regular-season games and their bowl game. Go figure: 2&#8212;Number of Virginia Tech redshirt freshmen who made their first career starts last night. Center Michael Via started in place of Beau Warren (sprained left knee). Linebacker Lyndell Gibson started in place of Jake Johnson, who had been ineffective. Next: The Hokies return to ACC action when they play next Saturday at Maryland (1-3 ACC, 2-6). The game will begin at 1 p.m. and air on ESPN360.com. The Terrapins have lost three consecutive heading into tomorrow&#8217;s 1 p.m. game at North Carolina State.           ]]></description>

Grading the three keys A+Ryan Williams recovering. Virginia Tech&#8217;s redshirt freshman tailback bounced back in a big way, carrying 26 times for 179 yards&#8212;his season high. He also became the 12th Tech tailback to rush for 1,000 yards and has 1,109 for the season. In the Hokies&#8217; previous game, a 20-17 loss to North Carolina, Williams lost a fumble on his final carry, on Tech&#8217;s 24-yard line with 2:02 left. The turnover set up Carolina&#8217;s game-winning field goal. AClean snaps. Redshirt freshman center Michael Via started for the first time, in place of injured junior Beau Warren, whose sprained left knee, suffered against North Carolina, prevented him from making the trip to East Carolina. Via appeared to handle things well, as he committed no glaring errors on snaps, which is all the Hokies can really ask for at this point. A-Stop allowing long runs. East Carolina&#8217;s longest carry was 18 yards by running back Dominique Lindsay. Overall, the Pirates ran 31 times for 110 yards. Through their first eight games, the Hokies allowed 14 runs of 20 yards or longer&#8212;the same number they allowed in 14 games last season and three more than they allowed in 14 games in 2007.           ]]></description>

DENVER - The Western Athletic Conference has suspended a replay official for one game after he failed to overturn a call in a game last weekend between San Jose State and Boise State. Official Michael Goshima&#8217;s one-game suspension will go into effect this weekend. The suspension - the first of a WAC replay official since the NCAA implemented instant replay in 2006 - was based on a play where a runner was ruled short of a first down and Goshima&#8217;s review incorrectly upheld the ruling on the field.           ]]></description>

NHL ROUNDUP  BLUE JACKETS 4, THRASHERS 3: Raffi Torres scored two uncontested second-period goals and Columbus held off hosting Atlanta. The Thrashers, coming off road wins at Ottawa and Montreal, lost for the fourth time in five home games. The Blue Jackets took a 2-0 lead in the first period when Jakub Voracek and Derick Brassard each had a goal and an assist, and Columbus never trailed. Mathieu Garon stopped 32 shots in his first start against the Thrashers since 2000. CANADIENS 2, BRUINS 1 (SO): Patrice Bergeron&#8217;s goal with 52 seconds left in regulation helped Boston avoid a historic third straight shutout, but Michael Cammalleri scored in the shootout to give visiting Montreal the victory. Boston had not scored in 192 minutes, 6 seconds, dating to Vladimir Sobotka&#8217;s goal at 7:02 of the third period against Edmonton on Saturday. The Bruins had not been shut out in three straight games since Eddie Shore and the 1928-29 squad scored just once over five games from Feb. 2-14, 1929. That team went on to earn Boston&#8217;s first Stanley Cup title.&#8212;From Wire Reports           ]]></description>

ASHBURN&#8212;After signing his $100 million contract in February, Albert Haynesworth readily discussed how his presence might make the Washington Redskins defense better. &#8220;What I should have said,&#8220; Haynesworth said this week, &#8220;is we&#8217;ll get some more wins. That&#8217;s the thing I failed to mention.&#8220; For the most past, the Redskins&#8217; expectations for Haynesworth and the rest of the defense have come to pass. He has made the players around him better. Andre Carter already has 6&#189; sacks. Brian Orakpo leads all rookies with 3&#189;. Overall, the defense is tied for fourth in the league in yards allowed (283.4) and is fifth in points allowed (17.6). The Redskins have gone 30 games without giving up 30 points, the longest such streak in the NFL.           ]]></description>

One play should be sufficient if senior defensive end Arthur Moats ever needs a highlight DVD of his work at James Madison. On a pass by William and Mary, Moats used a speed rush to get around the tackle assigned to block him. Up stepped a running back. Moats went through him as if he was a ghost, then homed in on quarterback R.J. Archer for a sack in short order.           ]]></description>

The grind of the football season is beginning to wear on two of U.Va.&#8216;s top offensive players. Quarterback Jameel Sewell (Hermitage) has battled an ankle injury for the past few weeks and also injured his shoulder at some point in the past week. He is listed as &#8220;doubtful&#8221; for tomorrow&#8217;s game, with Marc Verica the backup-in-waiting. &#8220;He&#8217;s a very physical player for a quarterback,&#8220; coach Al Groh said. &#8220;He takes a pretty good licking but keeps coming back.&#8220;           ]]></description>

Tight end William Bischoff caught a TD pass at Towson last Saturday, was hit in the end zone, and his helmet popped off as if it was spring-loaded. This scenario has become more common in recent years. Earlier this season, UR&#8217;s Nick Battle made a sack after his helmet had come off. &#8220;I&#8217;ve got to make sure these guys are buckled up properly, so they are protected,&#8220; said Spiders coach Mike London.           ]]></description>
