Carson, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - Marcelo Sarvas second-half strike proved to be the difference on Sunday as the Los Angeles Galaxy claimed a 1-0 victory over Seattle Sounders FC at the StubHub Center in the first leg of the Western Conference Championship tie. The Galaxy entered the contest rested and riding a nice wave of confidence after dispatching Real Salt Lake, 5-0, on aggregate in the West semifinals, while Seattle reached its second Conference final after knocking off FC Dallas via the away goals rule. It was a tense affair from the opening whistle, but both clubs created numerous scoring chances in the first half, forcing both goalkeepers to make several upstanding saves. The sides went into the break scoreless, but Los Angeles had the jump in the second half and grabbed the games only goal in the 52nd minute. Sarvas did well to corral a pass from defender A.J. DeLaGarza at the top of the penalty area and have a strike on target. The ball took a deflection off Seattles Chad Marshall and wound up past Stefan Frei in the back of the net to give the hosts the lead. The Galaxy continued to surge forward looking for a second goal and had another great chance in the 65th minute when Stefan Ishizaki lined up a free kick from 20 yards out and blasted it off the crossbar. Seattle was ultimately unable to create an equalizing tally, but the Rave Green will have the opportunity to turn things around in the second leg of the tie at CenturyLink Field on Nov. 30.

Wholesale NFL Jerseys China . - Maxence Parrot of Bromont, Que.ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Ben Brust and his Wisconsin teammates got oodles of open shots while they sliced and diced Baylors vaunted zone defence. When the Bears had the ball, 7-foot Frank Kaminsky always seemed to be right in their way. Brust, Kaminsky and their Badgers realize they dominated Baylor in a 69-52 victory Thursday night because of a coach who always puts them in the right spots. Bo Ryan has never been to college basketballs final weekend, but the Badgers are thrilled to put him on the brink. "That would be a very special thing to do, but we also know that hes not going to let us look too far ahead," said Brust, who scored 14 points. "When that time comes, well handle it. Id definitely like to do that for him." Kaminsky scored 19 points and blocked six shots while Wisconsin romped into the West Regional final, reaching the final eight for the third time in school history. Brust hit three of the six 3-pointers from the second-seeded Badgers (29-7), who jumped to a 14-point lead in the first half and never let up on the overmatched Bears (26-12). Kaminsky and his disciplined teammates shredded the Baylor zone that played so well in the first two games. Wisconsin also methodically shut down Baylors talented offence while moving into its second regional final in 13 years under Ryan, who has seen just about everything except the Final Four in a 700-win coaching career. "Id be honoured to be a part of that," Kaminsky said. Wisconsin advanced to the regional final Saturday against top-seeded Arizona, which held off San Diego State 70-64 in the late game at Honda Center. The Badgers havent been to the Final Four since retired coach Dick Bennett got them there in 2000. The Badgers advanced by countering everything the Bears do well. Wisconsin wrecked Baylors zone, negated their 3-point shooting acumen with perimeter defence, kept the tempo at the Badgers preferred speed and even held a 39-33 rebounding edge on Baylor, one of the nations top rebounding teams. Ryan put on a bit of a coaching clinic, but thats nothing new. The Wisconsin folk hero has led the Badgers to an NCAA tournament berths in each of his 13 seasons, but only got this close to the Final Four in 2005. "We get 40 more minutes, and Im awfully proud of them,," Ryan said.dddddddddddd Kaminsky added another remarkable performance to his junior season with the Badgers, racking up 10 points and four blocked shots while Wisconsin took a 29-16 lead into halftime. Wisconsin held Baylor to a season-low in first-half points. Cory Jefferson scored 15 points for the sixth-seeded Bears in their third Sweet 16 trip in five years. Isaiah Austin and Montreals Kenny Chery scored 12 points apiece for Baylor. The Bears needed a late rally just to match their lowest-scoring performance of the season in the final seconds. "Wisconsin really played a great game, and we did a very poor job in making things tough," said Baylor coach Scott Drew, who still led his team to a strong finish after its 2-8 start to Big 12 play. "Theyre extremely hard to pressure and rattle. ... Once we got behind, we had to do some things we wished we didnt have to do." Three lower-bowl sections of the Anaheim Ducks home arena were packed with red-clad Badgers fans, who usually turn out in droves for their schools trips to Southern California, including three straight recent trips to the Rose Bowl. They had plenty of time to celebrate while their Badgers quickly sapped all of the drama out of these schools first meeting. Baylors flexible zone defence caused numerous problems for Nebraska and Creighton in the Bears victories last week. With a few days to prepare, Ryan clearly figured out exactly how to attack it. The Badgers got multiple open looks on nearly every possession in the first half, moving the ball around the perimeter for open 3-point attempts or getting it down low to Kaminsky, who scored eight of Wisconsins first 10 points. Brust hit two 3-pointers in the first half, and only a few open misses prevented Wisconsin from blowing it open early. On the other end, the Bears had little of the poise they showed in their first two games. Baylor missed 12 of its first 15 shots and fell behind by 14 late in the half. Baylor finally abandoned the zone early in the second half, but Traevon Jackson hit a 3-pointer for Wisconsin on the next possession. The Bears showed their athleticism and skill with several one-man drives to the hoop in the second half, but the Badgers calmly stuck to their plan in a blowout win. ' ' '
