BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- James Blackmon Jr. and the Indiana Hoosiers made quick work of overmatched Liberty.Blackmon made five 3-pointers and had 20 points to help No. 6 Indiana rout Liberty 87-48 on Saturday night.Indiana (3-0) scored the first nine points and built a 32-point lead in the first half.The game seemed like it lasted four days, Liberty coach Ritchie McKay said. I cannot remember the start.Hoosiers coach Tom Crean sure did.The most important thing for us was to get off to a really good start defensively, he said.Liberty (1-2) tried to fight back with 3-pointers, but made it worse by continually missing. The Flames were 5 of 27 (18.5 percent) from beyond the arc, including 1 of 17 (5.9 percent) in the first half. Indiana finished 9 of 21 (42.9 percent).Thats one thing we wanted to definitely focus on, no matter who were playing, play like were us and not play to the opponent, said Blackmon, who is averaging 23 points and has 14 3-pointers.Robert Johnson added 13 points for Indiana and OG Anunoby had 10 points and 11 rebounds, the first double-double of the sophomore forwards career. Anunobys energy was noticeable at both ends on back-to-back possessions when he blocked a shot three rows deep into the stands and then threw down a two-handed dunk off a rebound.Were not where we want to be, Anunoby said of the Hoosiers defense, but we know well get better.Crean had stressed the importance of rebounding before his Hoosiers seized a 55-20 advantage on the boards.Tonight, it was more about, `Lets get on the glass, Crean said. `Lets get on the glass offensively. Lets get on the glass defensively. Lets make sure our effort and energy is really good there.Crean thought his teams season-opening trip to Hawaii eight days ago had his players jet-lagged earlier in the week. The legs were fresher against the Flames as the Hoosiers hounded Liberty into 26 turnovers.We try to be disruptive in passing lanes and box out and just pressure the ball, Anunoby said.Libertys John Dawson, who entered with a team-best 14.5-point average, scored just two points on 1-of-7 shooting. No Liberty player scored in double digits.McKay was overly effusive in his praise of the Hoosiers.Indiana is really impressive, the coach said. I sat on an ACC bench the last six years and saw a lot of quality teams and Indiana is as good as I have seen in years.They have everything; size, depth, strength, skill, unselfishness. That is a terrific team.ADVANTAGE BY 3SIndiana has made 35 of 79 3-pointers (44.3 percent) with eight different players contributing at least one basket from long range. In addition to Blackmons 14, Johnson, Anunoby and Curtis Jones each have four. Hoosiers opponents have made just 21 of 71 3-pointers (29.6 percent).INDIANA CLASSICIndiana improved to 2-0 in its four-team tournament, which also includes UMass Lowell and Fort Wayne. The Hoosiers drubbed UMass Lowell 100-78 on Wednesday.BIG PICTURELiberty: The Flames have never knocked off a Top 25 team in 14 tries and have never defeated a Big Ten foe in four meetings, so its not as if they expected to pull off an upset. They can bounce back with two winnable home games.Indiana: Its all about staying perfect against inferior competition as the Hoosiers inch closer to a Nov. 30 home showdown against No. 5 North Carolina.UP NEXTLiberty: Host UMass Lowell on Monday.Indiana: At Fort Wayne on Tuesday.---More AP college basketball: www.collegebasketball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25Cheap Ultra Boost 2018 .

Wholesale Ultra Boost .B. - Sebastien Auger made 44 saves as the Saint John Sea Dogs edged the visiting Acadie-Bathurst Titan 2-1 on Saturday in Quebec Major Junior Hockey League action. Kerala coach P Balachandran has been sacked midway through the 2016-17 Ranji Trophy season after the state association felt the teams performances had fallen short of expectations. Former India seamer and Kerala bowling coach Tinu Yohannan has been given the teams charge, and M Rajagopal, the coach of the states Under-23 side, has been named assistant coach.There has also been a major overhaul in the team, with four players - senior batsman Robert Fernandez, wicket-keeper Nikhilesh Surendran, seamers U Manukrishnan and MD Nidheesh - being axed from the squad. Instead, five players from the Under-23 team - Fabid Farooq, Mohammed Azharuddeen, Salman Nizar, Akshay Chandran and KC Akshay - have been picked for Keralas remaining matches against Goa, Andhra, Tripura and Services.Kerala are one of two teams in Group C that have not yet registered a win after five rounds of the tournament, despite securing a first-innings lead in four of their five games. With 12 points, they are fifth in the standings and still in contention for a place in the knockouts, but the Kerala Cricket Association felt the time was apt for a change.It isnt [a kneejerk reaction]. For the last six or seven seasons, we are coming close but still missing out a place in the knockouts, a KCA official told ESPNcricinfo. We cannot spoil one more year.According to the official, the associations cricket development committee - which includes the chairman of the senior selection committee, K Jayaraman, and former cricketers KN Ananthapadmanabhan and Sunil Oasis - was not on the same page with BBalachandran when it came to team selection.dddddddddddd Balachandran is a good human being, but we need results, the official said. When the junior teams are performing creditably, senior teams are not living up to their expectations. We want to reward good performances. Thats why we have brought in five youngsters.Balachandran, who took over from Sairaj Bahutule as coach, said he was surprised by the decision. I am not disappointed or upset though, Balachandran said. After the Haryana match, I got a message from the secretary [TN Ananthanarayanan] saying that my services were no longer required. I said fine. I did not ask for the reason.Last year, our team did well in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and the association gave good support. I dont have any grievance, because I have done my work. The association expected more from me which I couldnt deliver; I keep it as simple as that.Balachandran also admitted the signing of three professionals - Iqbal Abdulla and Bhavin Thakkar from Mumbai, and Jalaj Saxena from Madhya Pradesh - at the start of the season had possibly raised KCAs expectations of the team.The KCA official said the decision to rope in professionals indicated the associations desperation for a better showing this season.We wanted an aggressive approach, thats why we brought in some guest players, the official said. But, if they are going to be on the losing side all the time, it will affect their morale as well.
