BOWLING GREEN, Ky. - Delaney Sheehan opened the scoring in the sixth minute of play with her second goal of the season and Caroline Brockmeier saved all four shots on target she faced as the LSU Tigers picked up their third win on the spin with a 1-0 blanking of Western Kentucky on Thursday night at the WKU Soccer Complex.The Tigers (4-3) also pushed their winning streak to two-straight in the series after also topping the Lady Toppers (3-3) by a 4-1 margin at the LSU Soccer Stadium in Baton Rouge on Aug. 28 of last season.Sheehan gave the Tigers an early 1-0 lead in the sixth minute of play when she headed Marlena Cuturas corner kick from the right corner flag into the back of the net for her second goal of the campaign. LSUs opener came from a nice switch of play by freshman Jade Clarke over the WKU defense to junior forward Jorian Baucom in the right side of the area for a shot that was deflected out by a recovering defender.It was definitely our goal to come out and get a goal early in the game, but I dont think we accomplished necessarily our goal the rest of the game to stay on them and get a second or third goal, Sheehan said. It was definitely a struggle, but everyone, even though it wasnt our best performance at all, we worked to not let them get in the back of the net the rest of the game.It was a challenge because they were on us the whole time, but we were able to keep them out of the net and come out with a win. Thats always the most important thing, especially away from home.Cutura served up her second assist of the season from the corner flag on Sheehans game-winner after registering the first of her collegiate career in LSUs 1-0 win at College of Charleston on Aug. 21 as junior Jordane Carvery was the recipient in the teams first win of the campaign.Marlena is really special in that she takes both left-footed and right-footed in-swinging corner kicks, Sheehan added. She puts them inside the six (yard box) nine times out of 10. So, we know that every time we go in for a corner kick, its a challenge that we can win. I saw it coming far post, and I saw Jordy (Carvery) and a girl in front of me go up and challenge. I didnt have a player on me, so I just yelled as loud as I could at Jordy, Ive got it! I was uncontested, so it was nice that we could get the early goal at least.Junior Debbie Hahn was the next Tiger to go close as the clock rolled under 10 minutes to play in the first half as she flashed a free kick from the edge of the WKU box just over the crossbar to remain at 1-0.Western Kentucky turned up the pressure in the second half while searching for the equalizer, but Brockmeier and LSUs back four of Carvery, Clarke and Hahn along with senior Megan Lee were up to the task as the Tigers resolve would not be broken over the final 45 minutes.Brockmeier was positioned to deny Haley Balridge with a driven effort from the top of the box after the Tigers defended the initial corner kick by the Lady Toppers in the 51st minute of play. The home side threatened again from a corner kick on the hour mark as Christina Bragados goal-bound header from eight yards out was tipped over the bar by Brockmeier to preserve the lead.Honestly, Jordy and Megan are so solid back there. I dont know what Id do without them in front of me, Brockmeier said. I always hear Jordy on the field, I always hear Megan. If I need help, theyre not shy to talk to me. They always get people in positions where they need to be, and thats what you need in a game like that when youre having to defend like that down the stretch.The Tigers are set to wrap up their four-game road swing on Sunday night with a trip to College Station, Texas, where they will face the 11th-ranked Texas A&M Aggies in their SEC opener at 6 p.m. CT at Ellis Field.

There is a distinct calm in Rajkot. The new stadium is a fair distance outside the city, on the highway to Jamnagar. A grand structure in the middle of nowhere; remote enough that as the players practise in the nets, over the wall behind them, a herd of buffaloes shuffle about, slowly, contentedly, peacefully. Virat Kohli punch off drives off throwdowns from Anil Kumble on one side. From the other, a big old moo sounds.There has been a smattering of people at the ground every day since the Indian team has been in town. Kids mostly, phones shooting out of pockets faster than guns did in the old westerns.Century lage, na? Arvind Pujara chuckles, and says, Why should he stop there? when asked how much hed like Cheteshwar to score a ton on his home ground in its first Test. It will be the first time the father will watch his son bat live.There is another player for whom this would be special. The portraits of him in the stadium make careful note of the twirl in his moustache. The Rajputana twirl. Ravindra Jadeja has already displayed the sword celebration at Lords, the home of cricket. Plenty will be wishing to see him do so again, at the home of his cricket.He learnt the game in Jamnagar, a few kilometres down the road, becoming a fine addition to the towns heritage of left-arm spin. One of their residents, Vinoo Mankad, helped India to their first Test win. Jadeja would be expected to follow suit and win Rajkots first Test too.Considering the citys history, its almost disarming to see how quiet things are. A few people were at the airport when India arrived. A few at the ground to catch a glimpse of the men theyve only seen on TV or on paper. Life simply goes on. Perhaps the people have already been spoilt. They have two entire tournaments named after men with roots in Saurashtra. The Ranji Trophy - for Raanjitsinhji who also gave cricket the leg glance.dddddddddddd And the Duleep Trophy - for his nephew Duleepsinhji. Their domestic team has been active since the 1950s and were the runners-up last season. This is just five little days of international cricket.There is nervous energy among the administrators though. The Saurashtra Cricket Association president Niranjan Shah has made a few trips out to the middle, to check on the pitch, and then other proceedings. On Wednesday, he would have completed the ultimate achievement. He has invited the states chief minister to watch the game. Arrangements have been made to felicitate Test players from the region - all the way back to Salim Durani, the great allrounder of the 60s and 70s - and also those like Sitanshu Kotak and Jaydev Shah, who have been part of over 100 domestic games.The Pujara family has been in Rajkot for 50 years. Cheteshwar grew up in the heart of the city. With his father having worked for the railways, living quarters came with the job and there was a ground close-by as well. Every morning he would wake up at six and get some training in until nine, when school started. He wouldnt even change out of his uniform before heading off to play some more, his father in tow. Both of them began thinking about cricket seriously when Cheteshwar was seven-eight years old.Jadejas path was harsh. He trained at Cricket Bungalow, an academy in Jamnagar, where making mistakes would earn a beating. He had to dive around on hard, abrasive surfaces. He was taught flight by avoiding the head of a boy who would stand on the middle of the pitch. Outrageous things happen here. That a Test match has finally come along is no real biggie. ' ' '
