Kentucky used a determined second-half comeback to down intrastate rival Louisville on Friday night. The Wildcats trailed until the final minutes of regulation, where they grabbed a slim lead and held on to advance. It was the opposite story for Michigan, which played Tennessee in the Sweet 16 two days ago. The Wolverines held a large advantage throughout the contest, but the Volunteers kept chipping away until it was a one-possession game. Michigan didnt let Tennessee complete the comeback though, thus setting up this showdown with the Wildcats. Kentucky leads the all-time series between these two programs, 4-2. The last time the squads met, Michigan pulled out an 81-78 overtime victory back in 1993. John Caliparis Wildcats struggled to find their identity this season, especially down the stretch. But the young squad, made up of mostly freshman and sophomores, got hot at the perfect time, and has beaten teams like defensive powerhouse Kansas State, top-seeded and previously unbeaten Wichita State, and defending national champion Louisville in this tournament. It was a gritty performance versus the Cardinals on Friday, and required some skillful free-throw shooting, particularly in the second half when they went 14-of-16 at the stripe. Freshman star Julius Randle provided yet another double-double in the win, notching 15 points to go with a team-best 12 rebounds. Dakari Johnson and Aaron Harrison each tallied 15 points in the win, and Andrew Harrison tacked on 14 for the Wildcats. Some Louisville foul trouble also helped Kentucky, as Montrezl Harrell and Stephan Van Treese both exited for the Cards after fouling out late. On a team that has a roster full of potential, but very little experience, Randle has stood out as not only a top NBA prospect, but as the teams leader and go-to scorer. He averages a double-double heading into this game, netting 15.1 ppg while bringing down a team-high 10.7 rpg. His .708 free-throw percentage was a big help down the stretch against Louisville. James Young, who fouled out against the Cardinals, is second on the team in scoring with 14.1 ppg, although Aaron Harrison is also averaging 14.1 ppg. His twin brother Andrew Harrison checks in with 11.1 ppg, adding a team-best 144 assists to his stat line. As a team, UK is putting up 75.4 ppg while allowing 66.5 ppg. At one point, Michigan held a 15-point lead in the second half before Tennessee mounted its comeback attempt. The Vols climbed to within one with six seconds left, but Michigans Jordan Morgan drew a foul, which gave the Wolverines a chance to create a bit more separation. Thanks to four players who scored in double figures, the Wolverines were able to fend off the surging Vols, whose Cinderella-like run came to an end in the Sweet 16. Morgan appropriately led the team in scoring with 15 points, adding a team- high seven rebounds in the process. Nik Stauskas had a below-average day shooting (5-of-12 from the field, 3-of-8 from 3-point range), but still chipped in 14 points in the win. Glenn Robinson III added 13 points for Michigan, and Caris LeVert contributed 10 with five assists. As a team, the Wolverines hit 55.1 percent of their total shots. With his 14-point effort on Friday, Stauskas saw his team-leading scoring average take a slight dip. He still nets 17.3 ppg, also adding team-bests in 3-point shooting percentage (.448) and assists (115). Robinson III checks in at second on the roster in scoring with his 13.1 ppg, and LeVert adds 13 ppg. Imagine what the Wolverines would be capable of if they had a healthy Mitch McGary, although Morgan has been nothing less than stellar in this tournament playing the role of the teams big man. Morgan averages a team-high in rebounding (5 rpg), and nets a club-best 69.4 percent of his field goal attempts. As a team, the Wolverines are scoring 74 ppg while giving up 64.8 ppg.

In addition to what he reported in Insider Trading, TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun wrote on ESPN.FALL RIVER, Mass. - Lawyers for former New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez on Thursday asked that prosecutors disclose any inducements offered to his fiancee to get her to testify in his murder trial, and theyre also pushing the judge to allow them to call as a witness an expert on the drug PCP, saying Hernandezs co-defendants were smoking it two days before the killing.The filings came the same day the judge overseeing the trial worked to whittle down the pool of more than 1,000 potential jurors, excluding people who said they believed Hernandez was guilty, expressed a bias against people with tattoos or who said it would cause a hardship for them to serve on a trial expected to last more than a month.Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to the June 17, 2013, slaying of semiprofessional football player Odin Lloyd, 27, who was dating the sister of Hernandezs fiancee.Prosecutors say Hernandez and two other men, Carlos Ortiz and Ernest Wallace, picked Lloyd up at his home in Bostons Dorchester section and took him to an industrial park near Hernandezs home in North Attleborough, where he was shot to death. Prosecutors have not said who they believe pulled the trigger, although they have said they believe it was orchestrated by Hernandez.Investigators say the murder weapon was never found.In filings released by the court late Thursday afternoon, Hernandezs lawyers said he has a right to know if his fiancee, Shayanna Jenkins, has made any deals. The two have a daughter together. Prosecutors last week petitioned Garsh to grant Jenkins immunity to testify. The court has not said whether it was granted.Jenkins has pleaded not guilty to perjury for allegedly lying to the grand jury investigating LLloyds killing. Greg Pateryn Jersey. Prosecutors have said Jenkins lied dozens of times, including when she said she couldnt remember where she disposed of a box from the basement of their home that Hernandez allegedly told her to get rid of.Jenkins lawyer did not immediately return an emailed request for comment.Hernandezs lawyers also asked the judge to let them call David Greenblatt, a doctor who is an expert in PCP. Both sides have said Wallace and Ortiz were seen smoking PCP on the night of June 15, 2013. Prosecutors previously opposed calling Greenblatt as a witness, saying his testimony will be irrelevant because the two smoked the PCP more than 27 hours before the killing happened.Greenblatt says in an affidavit filed with the court that symptoms of PCP psychosis can include aggressive or violent behaviour, homicidal tendencies and impaired memory. He also says the symptoms can last for many days.Ortiz and Wallace have pleaded not guilty to murder charges. Their cases have not yet gone to trial.Hernandez was in court on Thursday as Garsh, along with Hernandezs defence team and prosecutors, reviewed prospective jurors written questionnaires. The sides raised concerns about hundreds of prospective jurors, referring to them by their juror numbers.One prospective juror answered that Hernandez was their favourite player. Assistant District Attorney William McCauley said that raised the question of whether the person could be fair and impartial, but defence lawyer Michael Fee said it could just be that the person admired Hernandez, and that does not disqualify them. Garsh agreed to bring the person in for further questioning.She is expected question individual jurors starting Friday. ' ' '
