We started out in a zone because I was worried about getting in foul trouble. We didnt shoot the ball well either and you never expect Tyson (Carter) to go 0 of 7 (on three pointers). But I am proud of the way Eli Wright defended and rebounded and we just hope to get healthier.In his first college start, Wright scored a career-best 11 points and also led the Bulldogs with seven rebounds.Right before the game Coach Howland came to me and told me I would be starting, said Wright, who was 4 of 5 from the field. I was glad to take advantage of the chance they gave me. I did okay but I couldve been more aggressive. Coach Howland told me to key on my rebounding so I have tried to progress on that.The Demons jumped out to a 14-4 lead in the first six minutes as both teams struggled offensively in the first half. Mississippi State responded with an 18-6 run to take a 22-20 lead after a dunk by Tyson Carter.The first half finished with the Bulldogs and Demons deadlocked at 28-28.

The Demons also out-rebounded Mississippi State 33-31.I am really proud of our kids coming in and competing against a bigger and quicker team, said Northwestern State head coach Mike McConathy.

Carlton Fisk Jersey Large . -- On the field, it was business as usual for Jameis Winston and No. CLEVELAND -- All it took was one bad play and one bad inning to derail the Oakland Athletics.After leading through six innings, Oakland allowed four runs in the seventh in a 5-3 loss to the Cleveland Indians on Friday night.Kendall Graveman (7-7) allowed just one run on four hits through the first six innings. He retired the first batter in the seventh before an error by shortstop Marcus Semien on Rajai Davis routine grounder started Clevelands rally.Hes a fast runner, maybe I thought about that and didnt focus on the catch, Semien said. Its frustrating that that led to a big inning.Oakland manager Bob Melvin came to his shortstops defense, saying that even if Semien fielded the grounder cleanly, it wouldve been a close play at first.`The guys running down the line pretty hard and hes got to field it cleanly and get rid of it quickly, Melvin said. You know you have to be perfect with it.Following the costly error, Tyler Naquin and Abraham Almonte hit back-to-back singles to cut Oaklands lead to just 3-2, as Graveman exited the game.Former Indians pitcher Marc Rzepczynski came in to relieve Graveman and walked Carlos Santana before Jason Kipnis tied the game with a broken-bat blooper to left.Ryan Dull replaced Rzepczynski and gave Cleveland the lead on a wild pitch that allowed Almonte to score from third. Francisco Lindor added the Indians final run with a sacrifice fly.Despite Semiens error, Graveman picked up his seventh loss of the season, allowing four runs -- three earned -- on six hits over 6 1/3 innings.Melvin acknowledged that Semiens error hurt Graveman, but felt that the starter pitched well up until the finnal few batters he faced.dddddddddddd(He was) good, really looked like he was going to pitch really deep into the game, Melvin said. Just seemed like the last two batters, maybe a couple of balls were up.Oaklands offense was completely stalled by Clevelands bullpen after Josh Reddick and Khris Davis hit back-to-back solo homers off Trevor Bauer in the sixth.Reddick nearly put the Athletics ahead in the ninth, when his fly ball to deep center off closer Cody Allen with two on was caught by Naquin on the warning track to end the game.Billy Butler gave Oakland a 1-0 lead with a two-out RBI single in the fourth.ROTATION SWITCHOakland left-hander Rich Hill, also the subject of trade rumors, was scratched from Sundays start because hes still bothered by a blister on the middle finger of his left hand.
