CORVALLIS, Ore. -- Colton Weisbrods legs were cramping, and he felt sore and tired after a game in which he played all 40 minutes. But if thats what it takes.Weisbrod had 16 points and 12 rebounds as Lamar forced 27 turnovers and held on to beat Oregon State 63-60 on Wednesday night.Were one of those teams, were going to fight, were going to battle. . You want to be that team that when people talk about you, they say, `Theyre scrappy, they go after you, they dont give up, said Weisbrod, a junior college transfer.Marcus Owens added 15 points and seven rebounds for the Cardinals (2-0).Lamar coach Tic Price said that his team has to rely on defensive pressure every game because of his undersized players.We believe in getting deflections and turnovers. . What we were trying to do as much as possible was keep Oregon State from executing their offense, Price added.The Cardinals shot only 28 percent, but had a whopping 71 attempts.Drew Eubanks had 17 points, a career-high 18 rebounds and six blocks for the Beavers (2-1). Jaquori McLaughlin added 15 points.They just were tougher than us mentally, physically. Our guys didnt respond. We knew they were going to play that way, Beavers coach Wayne Tinkle said.Last year, Oregon States season high in turnovers was 18.The Beavers trailed 54-48 when they resorted to fouling with 1:13 remaining. The Cardinals left the door open by shooting 8 of 13 on free throws.With 1.5 seconds left, Lamar led 63-60 and had Torey Noel at the line but he missed his second free throw. Oregon States Tres Tinkle, the coachs son, launched a half court desperation heave that wasnt close.The Cardinals led 29-25 at the break after forcing the Beavers into 18 first-half turnovers.An Owens 3-pointer with 16:15 remaining gave Lamar a 39-29 lead. The Cardinals stretched their advantage to 12 points.Oregon State responded with a 12-0 run, capped by a McLaughlin layup, to tie the game at 41, but the Cardinals regained a cushion.BIG PICTURELamar: Lamar faced a height disadvantage, as the Cardinals two tallest players are 6-foot-8. The Beavers had three players who are 6-foot-8 or taller in their starting lineup. . Weisbrod is a transfer student from Lamar State College Port Arthur, where he was a NJCAA First-Team All-American.Oregon State: Stephen Thompson Jr., the third-leading scorer last season, missed the second game in a row for precautionary reasons due to a left foot injury. He had been considered day-to-day.HEART: Price said Weisbrod, a 6-foot-5 forward, was a special competitor. Hes undersized, but hes probably got more heart than all the guys put together on the court. . He doesnt take plays off. He plays hard every day, all day, every time he hits the court, Price added.FREE THROWS: Oregon State lived at the line in its first two games, averaging 43 free-throw attempts, but was only 11 of 19 on Wednesday night.OFF NIGHT: Tres Tinkle averaged 23 points in his first two games, but was harassed into an off night, finishing with nine points and eight rebounds on 1-of-7 shooting.UP NEXTLamar plays on Saturday at Fresno State.

NORTON, Mass. -- Just because Saturday was the official start to the college football season, its only natural that we compare Deutsche Bank Championship 36-hole leader Kevin Chappell to one of the teams well see this year.He might be the team from the non-power conference threatening to win a title.Or he might be the team on the verge of peaking next season.Or he might be the team that keeps coming close but cant pull off the victory.Or maybe its none of these. Maybe weve just caught a little case of football fever over here.Analogies aside, Chappell leads at TPC Boston after opening rounds of 67-64, as he chases a first career win that has been so close yet so elusive to this point.So far this season, he owns three solo second-place finishes, netting him more than $3.5 million and a likely berth in the season-ending Tour Championship, which was a goal of his. If theres a non-football comparison to be made, its with Kevin Kisner, who had three runner-up results last season, then won for the first time in his fourth start of this season.Despite not winning yet, Chappell insisted he still views his campaign with a positive outlook.Its hard to be frustrated when youre having the best year of your career, he said. Thats really how I try to look at it. Last year when I stood here, I was trying to get to the next event, and this year I stand here and it sounds like Im pretty much a lock to get to the last event at East Lake.You cant be disappointed with that. I would love to have won and won multiple times, but Ive learned from those experiences, and my team and I keep addressing the weaknesses that come up from those situations. You dont know if youre improving until you get in the situation and see how you hold up, so I look forward to that.Hes going to have an oopportunity to see that improvement over the final 36 holes, with some heavyweight competition in close pursuit.ddddddddddddJimmy Walker, the recent PGA Championship winner, is just 1 stroke back. So is Paul Casey, the former top-10 player and multiple Ryder Cup team member. Among those not far behind them is Dustin Johnson, who might be enjoying the best season of anyone to date, and Justin Rose, who won Olympic gold just three weeks ago.As for what Chappell has learned from those previous close calls, he pointed to a specific intangible component to his performance.Just how patient you need to be and really the value of a shot, he explained. Use The Players [Championship], for example. I was over par for the tournament for 26 holes and was able to fight back and finish solo second. Solo second pays out like a win, which is huge, but I could have easily packed it in and took it as a missed cut and all of a sudden I net $1 million on the week. It just goes to show that youre never out of it. Im never out of it, and I need to be myself and just ride out the process.That learning curve will be on display during the final two rounds.Theres plenty on the line for Chappell, who could put himself in excellent position for the $10 million FedEx Cup first prize, and perhaps even become a candidate for a Ryder Cup captains selection.Hes either like the team that keeps coming close without finishing or will peak next season, or -- and hes hoping its this one -- is ready to prove itself against those power conferences.Hey, it might be football season, but Chappell is showing hes not ready to close the door on this golf season just yet, either.
