AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. -- Weston Steelhammer watched the first half from the locker room. No doubt, Navy wishes he wouldve stayed put.Suspended for a half because of a targeting penalty the week before, the Air Force senior safety provided a second-half spark for a defense that was already playing lights out.Steelhammer led a dominating defensive effort , tailback Tim McVey scored twice, including a 62-yard TD catch, and Air Force beat Navy 28-14 on Saturday to take a big step toward claiming the Commander-in-Chiefs Trophy.Jalen Robinette had five catches for 163 yards for Air Force (4-0), which extended its home winning streak to 15 straight. His 75-yard TD catch late in the third quarter broke open the game.The Midshipmen (3-1) averted a shutout on a 6-yard TD run by Shawn White with 8:33 remaining. The option-oriented team finished with more yards passing (260) than rushing (57). For that matter, so did Air Force (257 yards passing, 173 on the ground).Weve got plenty of growing to do, Air Force coach Troy Calhoun said. Not that this wasnt a good step, because it certainly was.Steelhammer sat out the first half after being disqualified for a targeting call in the third quarter last weekend at Utah State. All dressed up and nowhere to go, he watched the opening half from the locker room, but soon made his presence felt by picking off a Will Worth pass with Navy driving in the third quarter. He had another late in the game.The guys out there did a great job in the first half of keeping us in it, Steelhammer said. I didnt want to be too much of a distraction coming back.No worry about that. Hes the leader of a unit that had six sacks, eight tackles for loss, a fumble recovery and held a Navy team averaging 316.3 yards rushing to just 57.There are still a lot of things we kind of goofed up, said Brodie Hicks, who had a blocked punt in the second quarter. But we definitely had a really good game.Heres a stat that bodes well for Air Force: The previous 19 winners of this game have gone on to win the Commander-in-Chiefs Trophy, which represents superiority among the three service academies. The Falcons need only to beat Army on Nov. 5 to earn the trophy. If the teams all finish 1-1 in the round-robin competition, the previous winner -- Navy -- retains the prize.They got after us, Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo said. I was really impressed with Air Force. I thought they played a really good game.The first half was ruled by defense with the only score a field goal. A surprise, too, given that Air Force and Navy came in averaging a combined 906 yards per game.Air Force began to pull away in the third quarter when McVey scored on a 1-yard plunge. Robinette soon followed with his TD catch from Nate Romine, who finished 8 of 14 for a career-high 257 yards and two scores.POLL IMPLICATIONSAir Force will definitely receive some votes this week. The Falcons havent appeared in the AP poll since 2010.However, its hardly on their mind.Its great to talk about all those rankings and numbers, Romine said. But all that matters is who you have next week and how you prepare for them.QUITE A GRABRobinette was impressed by McVeys one-handed, spinning catch . So much so that hes going to add it to his list of plays.Im still in shock about it, Robinette said.THE TAKEAWAYNAVY: The Midshipmen had a 19-game win streak against unranked opponents snapped. Just couldnt get their vaunted rushing attack on track.AIR FORCE: Off to a 4-0 start for the first time since 2003. The Falcons relied on a defense that recorded six sacks, eight tackles for loss and forced a fumble.UP NEXTNAVY: Host a Houston squad led by Heisman Trophy hopeful Greg Ward Jr., who accounted for five touchdowns in a 42-14 win over Connecticut on Thursday.We have a top-5 team coming into our stadium next week so lick our wounds and move on, Niumatalolo said.AIR FORCE: Travel to Wyoming next Saturday.

Zay Jones Jersey . -- Catcher Brett Hayes has agreed to a $630,000, one-year contract with the Kansas City Royals, avoiding salary arbitration. Lorenzo Alexander Jersey . John Lucas, signed as a mentor for rookie Trey Burke, showed he can score if required, scoring 12 points of his 16 points in the second quarter as Utah built an 18-point lead. http://www.thebillsgearshop.com/Bills-Andre-Holmes-Draft-Jersey/ . Terms of the deal were not immediately available. The 26-year-old finished last season with Clevelands Triple-A affiliate in Columbus after signing with the Indians in August. Logan Thomas Jersey . After a lengthy wait, persistent rain finally forced the postponement of the Nationals game against the Miami Marlins on Saturday night. The teams, and a few thousand fans, waited nearly four hours from the 7:05 scheduled start time before an announcement was made shortly before 11 p. Eddie Yarbrough Jersey . Scott Kazmir allowed four hits in seven shutout innings, Michael Brantley hit a two-run homer in a three-run first inning and the Indians maintained their hold on an AL wild-card spot with a 4-1 win over the Houston Astros on Saturday night. A week out from his super fight against Patricio Pitbull Freire and Benson Henderson has already downed his sixth cup of coffee of the day. The java isnt directly related to his fight prep, but instead to a new calling.Life with a newborn is tiring. Im very sleep deprived, Henderson told ESPN.com. Its pretty amazing. I wouldnt change it for the world.Henderson (23-6) is the father of a son, Kyung, who turned one earlier this month. For the 32-year-old, being a father hasnt changed his professional goals. Hes still looking to put on a show Friday at Bellator 160 against Freire in the main event.After losing his Bellator debut to Andrey Koreshkov at welterweight in April, Henderson is dropping down to lightweight against Freire, normally a featherweight. The winner will have a date with 155 pound champ Michael Chandler down the road. In addition to that, becoming a dad has added a new focus and drive to Hendersons life.As a father, my priorities are still the same, I still want to be the best fighter on the planet, but above that I want to be the best father I can be. I want to be the best father on the planet, so I make sure that my son comes first, said Henderson. Ive got to do this, Ive got to do that, so if that means I have to wake up at 5:09 in the morning, I set my alarm for 5:09 to get that early, early morning workout.Smooth does those workouts at his gym, The MMA LAB, in Glendale, Ariz. He describes it as a family friendly atmosphere, where moms and dads can take a jiu-jitsu class or work on strength and conditioning while the kids are doing a wrestling class. Saying a gym has family atmosphere is one thing, but this is legitimate. Henderson told The Fighter and the Kid podcast that the godfather and godmother to his son belong to the team.We truly care about each other, helping each other. We want each other to live our dreams. Theyre helping me live my dream, Im trying to help themm live their dreams.dddddddddddd Without that kind of support, being a fighter is hard, its tough.You may recall seeing Henderson propose to his then girlfriend, Maria, on national television minutes after beating Gilbert Melendez to defend his UFC lightweight title in April 2013. She said yes, and they tied the knot the following January. Maria also trains at the gym and is a gold medalist at the 2014 IBJJF World Jiu-Jitsu No-Gi Championship in the purple belt division. Needless to say, she can hold her own on the mats.Im man enough to admit, she has gotten me twice legitimately, Henderson told The Fighter and the Kid podcast.Although he has his little friend at the gym each day, Henderson states he wont push his son into the sport. Hell leave it up to Kyung to come to him if he wants to be involved in martial arts. If he gets interested in jiu-jistu, Benson says hell have a gi in just the right size ready to go. Seeing all the positive impacts martial arts have made in his own life, Benson intends to raise his family in the same fashion, but Kyung may have already have the itch, even if he hasnt said so yet.Hell be at the gym as were teaching class. As were practicing, before he was walking, he was punching the bag and kicking the bag like almost falling over but kicking the bag, Henderson told The Fighter and the Kid podcast.Henderson met with a few boxers while promoting Spikes doubleheader weekend of combat sports, kicked off by Bellator 160 on Friday, then Premier Boxing Champions on Saturday. He remarked at how some of them stated theyd go away from their families for a 12-week camp and how that wouldnt work for him.I dont think I operate quite that way, said Henderson. For this fight, for all my fights, my family will be with me pretty much the whole week.
