BATON ROUGE, La. -- Duop Reath matched his season-high with 23 points and LSU scored the last 10 points to defeat College of Charleston 75-65 on Monday night for its fourth-straight win.The Cougars, who trailed by 13 points five minutes into the second half, tied the score at 65-65 on a basket by Joe Chealey with 1:48 remaining. Charleston missed its last four shots while the Tigers scored on their final five possessions.Brandon Sampson made a pair of field goals and Craig Victor hit four consecutive foul shots in the final 90 seconds for LSU (8-2). The Tigers other points came on a field goal by Jalyn Patterson.We took our time running the offense and let things come to us, Sampson said. We stuck to our assignments and got the ball inside. Everything just came to us instead of us rushing everything.Sampson finished with 20 points, while Victor had a season-high 18 points and 10 rebounds. The Tigers shot 50 percent from the field for the fifth time this season.I just like the way our guys dont get distracted, LSU coach Johnny Jones said. Charleston made a great run at the end in tying the game up. We had to fight back and make some plays. Our guys were poised under pressure and made some big plays down the stretch.Chealey had 23 points for the Cougars (8-4), whose five-game winning streak ended. Jarrell Brantley added 11 points.We had a couple of breakdowns on defense at the end where we tried to be aggressive, Charleston coach Earl Grant said. We missed a couple of 3s. We clawed back and never gave up. That game could have gone in any direction. We just broke down at the end and ran out of gas.BIG PICTURECharleston: Once again, the Cougars were unable to deliver a victory against a big-name school. Charleston had lost games earlier this season to Wake Forest (78-61) and top-ranked Villanova (63-47).LSU: For the third straight game, the Tigers had to hold off a mid-major team down the stretch for a victory. LSU had beaten North Carolina Central 70-66 and Texas Southern 88-80 in its two previous contests.DOMINANT POST PLAYReath and Victor, LSUs starting post players, combined for 41 points and 18 rebounds. Reath, who blocked three shots, was 10 of 16 from the field and grabbed eight rebounds. Victor was 5 of 6 from the field and 8 of 10 at the foul line. The Tigers are 4-0 since Victor entered the starting lineup. He has averaged 13 points and 10 rebounds in those four games. Two of Reaths three 20-point scoring games have come since Victor became a starter.DEFENSIVE PROBLEMSCharleston had relied upon its defense in winning eight of its first 11 games. However, the Cougars struggled stopping LSU. The Tigers made 50 percent of their field goal attempts (29 of 58). Only Central Florida and Wake Forest had shot higher than 50 percent against Charleston this season. LSU was only the second team to score more than 70 points against the Cougars. Wake Forest scored 78 points.DIFFERENT ROLEAntonio Blakeney, who averaged 22 points in LSUs three previous games, took only eight shots against Charleston. Blakeney made three and scored just seven points. However, Blakeney tied his career-high in rebounds with 10 and handed out three assists.UP NEXTCharleston continues its five-game road trip Thursday at Western Carolina.LSU will play its first true road game of the season Thursday when the Tigers take on Wake Forest. Youth DaShawn Hand Jersey . Batiste, who briefly signed with the Eskimos in 2006, has spent time with several NFL teams including the Pittsburgh Steelers and Washington Redskins. Youth Nick Bawden Jersey . On June 12, just as the sun sets on the magnificent historical city of Sao Paulo the inventors, innovators and purveyors of “joga bonitowill” open their campaign. The opponent, Croatia and all its football might and will. As opposites do attract we are set for a corker of an opener. http://www.wholesalelionsjerseys.com/ . The home side created most of the chances but struggled to break down Braunschweigs resilient defence, resulting in the Bundesligas 1,000th scoreless draw. Youth Frank Ragnow Jersey .C. -- When North Carolina freshman Ryan Switzer reported to training camp in August he was a little miffed to learn he was third on the depth chart at punt returner. Youth Tracy Walker Jersey .C. at the helm of the top team in the Eastern Conference. His tenure as the GM in Vancouver was all too brief. Though he led the Canucks to what was then a franchise record-shattering campaign in just his second season, Nonis was gone and replaced one year later. PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Penguins are blessed with not one but two goalies who have won the Stanley Cup in the last seven seasons. Not surprisingly, coach Mike Sullivan has declined to designate one or the other as the starter.As well as Matt Murray is playing, and as uncharacteristically poorly as Marc-Andre Fleury is playing, Sullivan might have no choice but to soon give a majority of the starts to Murray.For the second time in five days, Fleury was worked over Friday in a blowout loss. He gave up an opening-minute goal to Charlie Coyle of Minnesota -- one of Coyles two goals in the first period -- and the Wild went on to the second dominant win over the Penguins in as many games this season, a 6-2 decision that, at times, didnt look to be that close.Usually that doesnt faze us, Fleury said of giving up a quick, early goal. Were a good enough team to come back.Only this time they werent. While Sullivan suggested his teammates didnt give Fleury much help, its all but certain that Murray -- off to a 6-1 start this season -- will get the call when the Penguins (12-6-3) return home Saturday night to play the New Jersey Devils (10-6-4) at PPG Paints Arena.The Devils are off to a solid start, and are looking like a potential playoff team as the quarter pole of their season approaches despite a 5-4 overtime loss to the Detroit Red Wings on Friday night. Detroit defenseman Mike Greene scored the game-winning goal with 1:42 remaining in overtime, beating goalie Cory Schneider, who made 28 saves.With both teams playing on back-to-back nights, its likely that the Devils will turn to backup goalie Keith Kincaid (2-1-1) on Saturday night.Well take the point and hope to be better (Saturday) for sure, said Devils coach John Hynes, who, like Sullivan, once coached the Penguins top farm club in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.Sullivan is parceling out goalie starts carefully, trying to make sure both Murray -- who won the Cup for him as a rookie last season -- and Fleury remain sharp and get regular work.But the more each goalie plays, the more disparate their statistics become. The Penguins have lost eight of the 14 starts made by Fleury (6--5-3), who has a 3.dddddddddddd.38 goals-against average and a .901 save percentage. Fleury has permitted three or more goals in six of his last seven starts.We werent a lot of help to him, captain Sidney Crosby said after the Wild scored on three of four power-play opportunities. We gave them some good really scoring chances. Not just your typical scoring chances but some really good looks. And we cant allow that to happen.Murray, by contrast, is 6-1 with a 1.57 goals-against average and a .945 save percentage. He gave up no more than two goals in each of his last four starts.The Penguins, however, have given up 11 goals in Fleurys last two starts, including a 5-2 loss to the New York Rangers on home ice Monday night, Sullivan wouldnt fault his goalie following a second successive loss to Minnesota, who also beat the Penguins 4-2 in Pittsburgh on Nov. 10.I thought we put him in a tough spot, Sullivan said of Fleury, who was in net for the Penguins Cup run in 2009. The goals they got, they got grade A scoring chances. The type of saves he had to make were high quality. So I think we put him in a lot of the circumstances.Still, Fleury said, Its frustrating to give up that many goals. There were a few I should have stopped.Sullivan seems more concerned with the overall unpredictable play of his entire team than he is any lack of steadiness by Fleury. The Penguins followed up that Monday night loss by beating up on the Rangers 6-1 Wednesday at Madison Square Garden, only to look unready to play against the Wild despite a Thanksgiving Day practice in Minnesota.Its hard for me to explain it, Sullivan said. If I could explain it, I could probably solve it. Its been something that is part of our game for the first 20 games.Two former Penguins players -- defenseman Ben Lovejoy and forward Beau Bennett -- will be with the Devils as the teams meet for the first time this season. Former Penguins general manager Ray Shero, who helped assemble that 2009 Penguins Cup team, now has the same job in New Jersey. ' ' '
