WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- Wake Forests guards did what theyre supposed to do -- make shots, take care of the ball and pass it to teammates who can score. The result: Another lopsided win to open the season.Keyshawn Woods scored 22 points with five of Wake Forests 13 3-pointers in a 94-74 win over Bucknell on Sunday.John Collins added 19 points and Mitchell Wilbekin had 13 to help the Demon Deacons (2-0) sweep a short, season-opening homestand, with this win coming less than 48 hours after a 21-point rout of Radford.Dinos Mitoglou finished with 11 points and Austin Arians had 10 for Wake Forest, which shot 50 percent both from the field and behind the arc, while matching a high for 3-pointers under third-year coach Danny Manning. The Demon Deacons also made 13 in a loss at Virginia Tech last January .Youre not going to shoot 50 percent from the 3-point line on a regular basis, Manning said. Were going to have to make shots throughout the course of the year to have success.Another stat may have thrilled him even more: Wake Forests four guards -- Bryant Crawford, Brandon Childress, Woods and Wilbekin -- combined for 16 assists and no turnovers. Eight of those assists belonged to Crawford.Ill take that every game, Manning said.Zach Thomas scored 16 points and Kimbal Mackenzie finished with 15 for the Bison (1-1), who shot 45 percent and clawed back into the game by turning 15 offensive rebounds into 22 second-chance points.Manning has said this is the best outside shooting team hes had in Winston-Salem, and it was hard to argue against that while the Demon Deacons made seven of their first nine 3-pointers to put Bucknell in an early hole.After the Bison pulled within single digits for the final time early in the second half, Wake Forest hit three more 3s in the span of four possessions -- including a four-point play by Arians -- to build a comfortable lead it wouldnt give back.Every time we made a mistake, and sometimes when we didnt, they made it, Bucknell coach Nathan Davis said.BIG PICTUREBucknell: Though they still havent beaten a team in the Atlantic Coast Conference at the time since 1961, the Bison showed signs that they will be a factor in the Patriot League race with a knack for getting to loose balls and turning them into buckets. But fouls were a problem for the Bison, who had two players pick up their fourth fouls in the first half. Davis said his team showed a lot of character in clawing back from 16 points down and had a chance to make it interesting.Wake Forest: The Demon Deacons took care of business this weekend with those two easy wins to get them prepared for even bigger challenges at the Charleston Classic -- where well surely learn more about what this teams ceiling ultimately is. Defending national champion Villanova likely awaits in a later round.STAT SHEETWake Forest was 23 of 29 from the free-throw line while Bucknell was just 5 of 9.TIP-INSBucknell fell to 11-52 against current ACC members with nine of those wins coming against Pittsburgh -- all before the Panthers joined their new league. ... This was just the seventh time under Manning that Wake Forest reached double figures in 3-pointers.UP NEXTBucknell: The Bison return home to face Robert Morris on Wednesday night before beginning play in the Las Vegas Invitational.Wake Forest: The Demon Deacons head to Charleston, South Carolina, for three games in the Charleston Classic, starting with a matchup with UTEP on Thursday.---Follow Joedy McCreary at http://twitter.com/joedyap---More AP college basketball: http://collegebasketball.ap.org Quinton Spain Jersey .

SEATTLE -- This time, it wasnt David Ortiz, Mike Napoli, Dustin Pedroia or any of Bostons other big sluggers at the centre of a Red Sox rally. Try Brock Holt, Jose Iglesias, Daniel Nava and a reliever in Steven Wright making just his second major league appearance as the reason Boston was able to get out of Seattle taking three of four games. Nava hit a two-out single in the top of the 10th inning to score pinch-runner Jackie Bradley Jr., and the Red Sox rallied from a four-run deficit for the second time in the series to beat the Mariners 8-7 in 10 innings on Thursday. Once again, the Red Sox found themselves trailing 5-1, just as they were on Tuesday night. In that game, Boston got homers from Pedroia, Napoli and a big game from Ortiz to rally past the Mariners for an 11-8 victory. In the series finale, it was two-out hitting that proved critical for the Red Sox to come back. Boston got two-out hits to score runs in the fourth, fifth and 10th innings. "A number of big swings for us with two outs and the two out runs scored," Boston manager John Farrell said. "We continue to grind away and play it right to the last out." Ryan Lavarnway walked to open the 10th against Tom Wilhelmsen (0-3) and was replaced by Bradley. Holt laid down a sacrifice bunt to get Bradley to second base with one out. Wilhelmsen struck out Iglesias on the eighth pitch of the at-bat then intentionally walked Jacoby Ellsbury. Nava fell behind in the count, but was able to roll a 1-2 pitch back up the middle and past the dive of second baseman Brad Miller to give Boston the lead. Nava was 0-for-5 prior to his hit in the 10th. "I was trying to get on top of something and go back up the middle and that was it," Nava said. Koji Uehara pitched the 10th for his seventh save as the Red Sox took three of four in the series. Wright (1-0) was the reason Boston was able to rally, shutting down the Mariners after replacing starter Ryan Dempster in the fourth inning. The knuckleball throwing right-hander allowed just three hits in 5 2-3 innings. He struck out three, including Mike Zunino for the final out of the fourth inning with runners on second and third. Seattle got just one baserunner to second against Wright, and that was via an error. "Given how well they swing the bat against fastballs it was the right combination today," Farrell said.dddddddddddd "He came to us, today would have been his fifth day where he was completely rested and we needed every pitch that he could give us. Just an outstanding job." It was just the second major league appearance for Wright, and Uehara made sure the ball from the final out ended up in Wrights locker. "That my goal every time just to keep going until they tell me Im done. Today I was able to do that," Wright said. Ellsbury hit the eighth leadoff homer of his career to extend his hitting streak to 19 games, the longest in the American League this season. Seattle got a solo homer from Kyle Seager leading off the second inning to give the Mariners a homer in 19 straight games, matching the longest streak in franchise history set in September 1999. Its the longest streak in the majors since Toronto also had 19 straight with a homer in 2010. Seagers homer helped Seattle build a four-run lead, only to watch Boston rally against Mariners starter Erasmo Ramirez. Boston scored three times in the fourth on two-out hits from Holt, Iglesias and Ellsbury, then scored three more in the fifth. Boston loaded the bases with no outs on singles by Pedroia and Jonny Gomes sandwiched around a walk to Ortiz. Mike Carps sacrifice fly scored Pedroia before Holt and Iglesias came through again with two-out RBI singles. "Every ground ball just go to the right spot. The hitters got the luck today," Ramirez said. "What I can do is just continue throwing the ball trying to make quality pitches, but I didnt so they made me pay for that." NOTES: Seattle OF Endy Chavez left the game in the bottom of the fourth inning with tightness in the right side of his groin running out a bunt single. ... Seattle outrighted RHP Jeremy Bonderman, who had been designated for assignment. Bonderman declined the assignment and instead chose to become a free agent. ... Ellsburys leadoff homer was his first since July 27, 2011 vs. Kansas City. ... Seattle 2B Nick Franklin aggravated an already sore right knee on Wednesday night and was out of the lineup. Seattle manager Eric Wedge hopes hell be able to play Friday.
