ARAMON FORMIGAL, Spain -- A surprise attack by Alberto Contador helped Nairo Quintana boost his lead over Chris Froome to more than three minutes after Sundays 15th stage of the Spanish Vuelta.An audacious move by Contadors Tinkoff team caught the peloton off guard with an attack at the start of the short 118.5-kilometer (74-mile) ride starting in Sabinanigo in the Pyrenees.Quintana quickly joined Contadors small breakaway that surprised Froome and isolated him from his Sky teammates, who were even further behind.Quintana increased his 54-second advantage entering the day to 3 minutes, 37 seconds after leading the charge up the last of three ascents while Froome struggled to pursue.Movistars Colombian climber crossed the finish line at the category-one Sallent de Gallego summit second three seconds behind stage winner Gianluca Brambilla of Italy, who took the win in 2 hours, 54 minutes, 30 seconds for his Etixx-Quick Step team.We were planning to make a move at the end of the stage, (but) Alberto is a great strategist. We joined forces and we pulled it off, Quintana said. It went better than I could have imagined.While Quintana rode strong throughout, Froome failed to close the gap without his teammates, who languished in the rear.The three-time Tour de France winner finished the stage 18th -- 2:37 after Quintana -- and the damage could have been greater if not for the help of Astana leading the chase of the breakaway.Contador said that he wanted to shake up the race after a disappointing stage on Saturday when he failed to keep up with Quintana and Froome in the French Pyrenees.Taking advantage of the twisting, hilly terrain, the three-time Vuelta winner shattered the peloton with an attack only 13 other riders, including Quintana, could follow.After I crossed the line (yesterday) I could only think about today, Contador said. I looked at the route and I told myself that I had to try something.Movistar followed up with a second attack by Alejandro Valverde that eliminated all but one of Skys teammates, David Lopez, who soon spent his energy and faded.Froome will still have the individual time trial, one of his strengths, on stage 19 to look toward.Esteban Chaves remained in third place overall at 3:57 back, followed by Contador five seconds behind.With the three-day mountain marathon over, Mondays stage is a flat 156.4-kilometer (97.1-mile) from Alcaniz to Peniscola.The 21-stage race ends in Madrid on Sept. 11.

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- Jack Gibbs scored 25 points and Peyton Aldridge added 21 points and seven rebounds to help lift Davidson to 70-55 win over Missouri in a losers bracket game of the Tire Pros Invitational on Friday.The Wildcats (2-1) bounced back from a deflating loss to Clemson on Thursday with an overwhelming performance against Missouri. Sparked by its 3-point shooting, Davidson jumped out to a 17-point lead early in the first half and never looked back.This is a challenging tournament and we accepted the opportunity to come here because we wanted to be pushed, we wanted to be challenged, we wanted to find out how good we are, said Davidson coach Bob McKillop. Certainly these two games, Clemson and Missouri exposed our strengths, exposed our weaknesses and gave us the opportunity to get better.Missouri, coming off an overtime loss to No.11 Xavier a day earlier, made runs late in the first and second halves but could not an offensive flow to keep up with Davidson.Davidson converted 44 percent from the field and 10 of 30 3-point attempts. Missouri made just 3 of 16 3-pointers.Forward Kevin Puryear led the Tigers with 12 points and six rebounds while Cullen Vanleer added 11 points and Reed Nikko came off the bench to contribute 10 points.The Wildcats set the tone early by hitting five of their first eight 3-point attempts to take 26-9 lead in the opening eight minutes. Four different Davidson players drained 3-pointers during that run. Gibbs converted two 3-pointers to give the Wildcats a lift.Missouri (1-2) pulled within seven points of the lead late in the first half. But Davidson put together a 9-0 run as the Tigers went scoreless the final 4:30 off the half and went into halftime trailing 37-23.ddddddddddddWe harped on defensive intensity last night and this morning because we didnt play well defensively as a team or individually, Gibbs said. As a unit we were in position better than we were against Clemson. That was one of the main things because if theyre making shots, its tough to get our offense going when you have to grab it off the rim. That makes our offense go.BIG PICTUREDavidson: The Wildcats are streaky shooters but when on they can put a lot of points in hurry. They hit six of their first eight 3-point attempts to jump out to a 17-point lead in the first eight minutes and never looked back. Gibbs was outstanding throughout much of the game as was Aldridge. The score could have been even more lopsided had the Wildcats not had a long stretches of time where either they couldnt score or they were careless with the ball.Missouri: After losing to No.11 Xavier by one point in overtime Thursday, the Tigers came out flat against Davidson and never recovered. Leading scorer Frankie Hughes was silent much of the game, going 1 for 11 for two points and three turnovers. Sophomore guard Terrence Phillips, who played brilliantly in the loss to Xavier didnt have a field goal and finished with one point.UP NEXTDavidson: The Wildcats will take on the winner of the Arizona State-Tulane game in the fifth-place game of the Tire Pros Invitational on Sunday.Missouri: The Tigers will meet the loser of the Arizona State-Tulane game in the seventh-place game of the Invitational on Sunday.
