VICTORIA, BC – On a windy afternoon at Centennial Stadium in Victoria, Vancouver Whitecaps FC came away with a 1-0 victory in their annual friendly match against the University of Victoria Vikes. The Vikes defended admirably for 90 minutes, led by a standout performance from goalkeeper Noah Pawlowski. However, continued pressure from Vancouver finally produced a goal in the dying seconds when Andre Lewis slotted home a fine cross from Omar Salgado. The Caps came out attacking from the get-go in front of 2,500 fans who braved the cold to watch the Blue and White come to town. The visitors had their first opportunity only three minutes into the match as Sam Adekugbe raced down the left flank and whipped a low cross into the box. Darren Mattocks got on the end of it, but could only manage to deflect it over the crossbar. Five minutes later the Blue and White were at it again. Russell Teibert got the ball on the left and lobbed in a ball to Hurtado who headed it towards net before it was cleared off the line. Teibert was the provider again on 14 minutes when he sent a cross to the back post. Sebastian Fernandez got a header on goal, but into the arms of Pawlowski. Seconds later, Nigel Reo-Coker darted through the middle and made a great pass to spring Mattocks on a breakaway before the Jamaicans low shot was well saved by Pawlowski. Looking for a first goal, Fernandez had a couple looks on net. First, on 24 minutes, the Uruguayan made a nice run before firing a strike at Pawloski. Then, on 31 minutes, Fernandez had a low shot from the top of the box that rolled wide of the net. Fernandez countryman had the next opportunity for the Caps, the best chance of the first half. After playing a ball to Mattocks, the Jamaican played a clever backheel to Nicolas Mezquida before his low shot was stopped by Pawlowski. Despite spending most of the first half in their own end, the Vikes had a chance of their own before the break. Craig Taylor hit a long shot that bounced just wide of David Ousteds net, leaving the teams level at 0-0 going into the second half. The ‘Caps made one change at halftime with goalkeeper Marco Carducci coming on to replace Ousted. The next 45 minutes saw Whitecaps FC turn up the pressure. Hurtado got things going on 48 minutes when he intercepted a pass, only to have his strike saved by Pawlowski. The ensuing corner kick was headed hard by Jay DeMerit, straight into the hands of the Vikes ‘keeper. Chances continued to come for the men wearing blue, with the ‘Caps speed on full display on 56 minutes. Mattocks got the ball on a quick counter and darted down the middle before finding Erik Hurtado cutting from the right. Hurtado then hit a shot inches wide of the far post. On 62 minutes, head coach Carl Robinson made nine changes to his lineup, with only Nigel Reo-Coker staying on among the outfield players. With a fresh group on the field, the Caps would not relent. Midfielder Bryce Alderson was a notable force for the new group. His cutting pass on 76 minutes sent Salgado into the box before Pawlowski made a kick save. Three minutes later, Alderson danced by his defender on the left edge of the box and sent in a dangerous cross that was cleared by the Vikes. As time ticked to the final whistle, the ‘Caps finally found the goal they were looking for. Salgado got the ball from Alderson on the left, teased his defender, then sent in a great cross to the back post which was promptly driven home by Lewis with only seconds remaining in the match. The late goal proved to be the winner for Whitecaps FC as they improve their record to 7W-1L-1D all-time against the Vikes. "Im glad it was a close game, because if wed scored early on maybe we would have taken our foot off the gas and I wanted a good tempo game, I wanted them to do the right things," said Whitecaps FC head coach Carl Robinson after the match. "On another day we might have scored eight or 10 goals. Obviously we need to work on our finishing a little bit more, but Im very pleased with the way we played and built up." The Caps return to Vancouver to train over the course of the next week before departing for Portland, Oregon on Friday where they will take part in the Rose City Invitational tournament.

West was just 3 of 11 from the field, but his biggest contribution didnt show up on the box score.They made some plays. But we made enough plays down the stretch, he said.Indiana (15-23) has needed that sort of veteran leadership ever since All-Star forward Paul George went down with a broken right leg in August.But West missed Indianas first 16 games with a sprained right ankle, and hes dealing with a previous injury to his hand that sometimes acts up when it gets hit. That happened Friday, which may explain Wests shooting.Fortunately for the Pacers, his teammates pitched in. Roy Hibbert finished with 19 points, 11 rebounds and five blocks. C.J. Miles added 17 points and C.J. Watson joined West in making big shots late.And the Celtics (12-22) werent at full strength.Boston was led by Avery Bradley with 23 points and Brandon Bass with 17 on a night they were missing two players -- forward-centre Brandan Wright, who was traded to Phoenix just before tip-off, and leading scorer Jeff Green, who is rumoured to be headed to Memphis. Green was yanked out of the starting lineup and did not suit up for the Celtics.Its a unique day, a tough day, and we came out and battled even though we couldnt make a shot in the first three quarters, said Boston coach Brad Stevens, who led nearby Butler to two straight Final Fours.The Celtics did fight hard, erasing a 13-point deficit in the final 8:34 of regulation.dddddddddddd They forced overtime with Bradleys 3 with 4.3 seconds left.West could have won it with at the buzzer. But instead, he did the dirty work in overtime. His three-point play gave Indiana a 100-96 lead.Bradley scored Bostons next five points, and Evan Turners 16-foot jumper gave the Celtics a 103-102 lead with 1:45 to go.Thats when West came up big again. He made two free throws to give Indiana the lead for good. Miles made two more and Bostons closing 3 was off the mark.David was great down the stretch, coach Frank Vogel said. He was just big enough to help us close out the game.___TIP-INSCeltics: Boston was hoping it had started a new journey after snapping a four-game losing streak on the road Wednesday night at Brooklyn.

In addition to Paul George (broken right leg), the Pacers played without starting point guard George Hill (strained left groin) and backup centre Ian Mahinmi (torn left plantar fascia).
