SEATTLE (AP) – Steven Hauschka matched a franchise record with
five field goals, Marshawn Lynch scored Seattle’s only touchdown on
a 1-yard plunge and the Seahawks forced three turnovers in a
surprising 22-17 win over the Baltimore Ravens yesterday. A week
after staking claim to the lead of the AFC North with a thrilling
last-second win at Pittsburgh, the Ravens flopped on the West Coast
in similar fashion to letdowns twice already this season.

off Florida Atlantic 77-71 last night in the World Vision Classic.
Kore White hit a 3-pointer to pull Florida Atlantic within 74-70
with 1:21 left, but missed another long attempt on the Owls’ next
possession. Abdul Gaddy got the rebound, was fouled, and hit both
free throws with 38 seconds remaining to put the Huskies
comfortably ahead.
SEATTLE (AP) – Nemanja Mitrovic scored 13 points and Portland
pulled away in the final minutes to defeat Georgia State 66-61

3-pointer to pull Georgia State within 57-55 with 3:16 left, but
the Pilots answered with a 7-0 run to regain control down the

only once in the game.
