Widnes end their losing streak, Warrington show their ruthlessness and Summer Bash feature in Set of Six. James Harrison Jersey . Ruthless WolvesWarrington showed no mercy as they took full advantage of a low-in-confidence Leeds to destroy them 52-18. It was a definite return to form from Warrington who bounced back from consecutive defeats by Wakefield and Castleford to return to the top of the table.Chris Sandow made a welcoming return and was superb and if the Wolves can keep on producing these performances consistently then they would be hard to bet against for an Old Trafford appearance.Back to winning ways Highlights of Widnes Vikings victory over Huddersfield Giants in the First Utility Super League Well done to Widnes who ended their eight-match losing streak with a very tough win against Huddersfield on Sunday.The Vikings trailed 16-0 until just before the break but then ran in five tries to the delight of their coach Denis Betts.We were the better team, even when we went 16-0 down, said Betts.

It was a weekend for fightbacks as Swinton fought back from 20-0 down to beat Oldham 25-24 as Matty Beharrell squeezed over a last-gasp drop-goal to seal the dramatic turnaround.Leigh also had to fight hard for their win as they extended their unbeaten run to 14 matches with a thrilling 24-20 victory after coming back from 10-0 down against Bradford.Is Cronk crocked? Cooper Cronk gestures during a Melbourne Storm NRL training session Cooper Cronk faces a race against the clock to be fit in time for the State of Origin opener on Wednesday.The Queensland captain has been icing his ankle round-the-clock since rolling it in training on Friday and will still be considered even if he misses the captains run.A vital cog in the Maroons side, Cronk has missed a game in each of the past two series through injury, with Queensland losing both of those matches, their only other loss in the last eight games came in 2014 when Cronk left the field with a broken arm in the opening minutes.However, it seems not everybody is convinced by the 32-year-olds injury, with New South Wales coach Laurie Daly accusing his opponents of playing mind games to earn the underdog status.Troubles for Wigan?

George Hill had 13 points and seven rebounds for the Pacers, who stayed atop the overall NBA standings despite losing twice on their West Coast trip. Los Angeles kept it close into the second half before the Pacers finished an easy win over the injury-riddled Lakers, who have lost five straight. http://www.footballsteelerstore.us/Black-Friday-La...es-Jers ey/ . Louis, MO (SportsNetwork.LAWRENCE, Kan. -- Perry Ellis scored 21 points, freshman Joel Embiid had 16 points and 13 rebounds in a breakout performance, and No. 2 Kansas used a big late run to bury Iona 86-66 on Tuesday night. Andrew Wiggins added 13 points and Naadir Tharpe had 10 assists for the Jayhawks (3-0), who got off to a sluggish start after their high-profile triumph over Duke last week. "I dont think I played good because (my father) was there," Embiid said. "I just felt more confident, and Coach always gives me his trust, so I just felt more confident." Embiid grew up playing volleyball in Yaounde, Cameroon, and didnt start playing basketball until he attended a camp run by the Sacramento Kings Luc Mbah a Moute, who hails from the same town. Embiid was 16 years old, but his athleticism made him a natural. He wound up at The Rock School in Gainesville, Fla., to pursue his basketball career, and quickly developed into a five-star talent. Kansas coach Bill Self was on him early, recruiting the blossoming Embiid to the school that produced Wilt Chamberlain. "Hell look good some days, he wont look as good some days," Self said, "but hes smart. He gets it. Hes figuring things out all the time. Im real pleased with his development." The Gaels (1-2), using a maddening 2-2-1 zone and pouring in 3-pointers, managed to hang within single digits until midway through the second half. Thats when Kansas went on a 19-4 surge fueled by its freshmen to finally put the game away. "Our kids came out and competed their hearts out and did their best all night," Iona coach Tim Cluess said. "It gives us a lot of measuring sticks for the rest of the season." A.J. English scored 21 points for Iona, and David Laury added 13 points and nine rebounds before fouling out. Sean Armand added 14 points, hitting three 3-pointers to move within three of matching the schools career record of 263. While the Gaels shot the ball well, they had no answer inside for Ellis and Embiid. The 6-foot-8 Ellis scored on a variety of nifty spin moves and soft floaters in the lane, while Embiid used his massivve size advantage to go 7 for 7 from the field. Coty Sensabaugh Jersey . Much to the delight of his father, Thomas Embiid. "It was the first time weve met him in person," Self said. "Thats the first basketball game hes ever seen. Hell be here til Saturday or Sunday, so itll be good to see Joel play again. But it has to be cool, youve come over here and your first experience is Allen Fieldhouse." After allowing the Blue Devils to shoot better than 50 per cent last week in Chicago, Kansas again struggled on defence. The Gaels pumped in six 3-pointers in the first half and shot 45 per cent from the field in closing to within 41-36 at the break. In fact, the Jayhawks might have found themselves behind to the MAAC school if not for the play of Ellis, who was 6 of 8 from the field and scored 13 points in the opening half. "I feel a lot more confident," Ellis said, "just trusting myself now." The Gaels kept within striking distance with their perimeter shooting early in the second half, much to the chagrin of Self, who kept burning timeouts. But once the outside shots stopped dropping, the Jayhawks were able to start running -- and use their superior athleticism. Tharpe served as the conductor orchestrating the Kansas offence, delivering crisp passes to set up easy baskets. The sophomore guard threw a pretty alley-oop pass to Wiggins to start the second half, and then tossed up another to Embiid on the next possession. Kansas finally buried the Gaels with its big run later in the half. Embiid and Ellis did most of the work, but the highlight came when Tharpe threw up another lob -- this time to 5-foot-11 freshman Frank Mason, who showed enough hops to slam it down. By the time Wayne Selden, another of the Jayhawks sensational freshmen, scored on a nifty reverse layup with just over 4 minutes to play, the lead had grown to 80-59. "Of course, watching Kansas for plenty of years, thats what they do," English said. "Their whole team is great. I know they have a lot of freshmen, but I feel like one through however many players they have, the whole team is great."
