COLLEGE PARK, Md. -- After opening the season with a pair of tight victories, Maryland really needed a stress-free matchup against an inferior opponent.That is precisely what the Terrapins got.Damonte Dodd had 13 points and 10 rebounds, L.G. Gill scored 15 and Maryland cruised past St. Marys 93-45 on Thursday night.Its nice to have something like this, coach Mark Turgeon said after the Terps (3-0) overwhelmed their in-state Division III opponent.The blowout came after the Terrapins squeezed past American and won an emotional thriller on Tuesday at Georgetown.We didnt put any prep into it. Thats really the grind of the season, Turgeon said. We put so much into American and Georgetown, it was nice just to show up and play a game.Turgeon started three freshmen, along with Dodd and junior guard Melo Trimble. Two of those first-year players, Anthony Cowan and Justin Jackson, combined for 10 of Marylands first 11 points.Ten different players scored in the first half for the Terrapins, who led 13-2, 21-3 and 26-6 before an 18-4 run made it 44-10.The 6-foot-11 Dodd is three inches taller than anyone on the St. Marys roster. He dominated the lane on both ends and had three blocked shots.It feels good, Dodd said. It was fun to be out there. They tried their hardest. They had some really good players. But it was nice to have a blowout and get our rhythm on defense and offense. This really helps us a lot going into the next game.Trimble, the star of the team, contributed seven points in 15 minutes. Freshman Kevin Huerter and Jaylen Brantley each scored 11.Tre Mouton scored 16 for the Seahawks (1-1), a member of the Capital Athletic Conference. St. Marys was coming off a 95-66 win over Penn State Altoona, but this obviously represented a huge leap in the level of competition.I told the guys to be proud of the effort you put out there, coach Chris Harney said. You never know how bad it could have been. We could have been walking out of here (having lost) 150-10. Clearly, it was two different teams as far as size and skill.The Seahawks opened by going 1 for 7 from the floor with seven turnovers and did not make successive baskets until midway through the second half.This marked the fourth time in 12 years under Harney that the Seahawks faced a team higher than Division III. Theyre 0-4 in those games.YOUTH IS SERVEDSt. Marys: Because the Seahawks are in rebuilding mode, Harney was particularly pleased with his teams performance. We dont have any seniors, we have a pretty young team. This for us was really preparation for our season in Division III.Maryland: The freshmen shined -- Jackson had 10 rebounds, Cowan finished with eight points and seven assists, and Huerter led the team with five field goals. But Turgeon was most impressed with sophomore center Ivan Bender, who had seven rebounds and six points in 18 minutes. Hes the most improved player on our roster, the coach said.THE TAKEAWAYSt. Marys: The Seahawks took a beating, but at least they got to play in a major college arena before resuming a schedule that includes road games against Wesley and Christopher Newport.Maryland: The Terrapins received a modest workout in a game situation. The low-pressure scenario enabled Turgeon to shuffle his freshmen and work on plays that will be useful in the future.UP NEXTSt. Marys faces Baldwin Wallace on Saturday in the Dan Greene Memorial Invitational.Maryland hosts another in-state foe, Towson, on Sunday afternoon.

With Parker having a quiet game for once, Nicolas Batum and Boris Diaw provided the scoring as France won its first major basketball title by beating Lithuania 80-66 on Sunday.

Greater Western Sydney are the Lamborghini of the AFLs fleet.Thats how Richmond coach Damien Hardwick described the burgeoning club after his sides 88-point belting in Canberra.Until Saturday, the Giants had never beaten the Tigers in their short history.And they did it in spectacular fashion in front of a record crowd at Manuka Oval to keep hold of second place on the ladder on percentage and all but secure a maiden finals berth.They booted the opening nine goals of the game and limited their Melbourne rivals to just one behind in both the first and fourth quarters in the 17.9 (111) to 3.5 (23) victory.Their 51-1 lead at the end of the first term marked their biggest - eclipsing their record 45-point haul in round six against Hawthorn in Sydney.For Richmond, though, it was their lowest score since 1961 and equal sixth-worst in club history.Were really rapt and pleased with our boys in their third week on the road, Giants coach Leon Cameron said.I didnt see the first quarter coming like that but, when it comes around, you take it.I thought our boys then played really good defensive footy from quarter-time onwards.Its the first time GWS have completed a sweep in the nations capital, their second home behind Sydneys Spotless Stadium, having toppled Port Adelaide and Geelong earlieer this season.ddddddddddddSteve Johnson, Toby Greene and Sam Reid led the way with three goals apiece, while Jeremy Cameron and Tom Scully had two each in perfect conditions.There is some concern about Rory Lobb, however, after injuring his ankle in the third term.I dont think theres big concerns at the moment but hes obviously a really important part of our structure and well be taking no risks, Cameron said.Well find out tomorrow, assess where its at and, hopefully, hes a chance to play next week.Jack Riewoldt and Sam Lloyd were Richmonds only goal-kickers, with Riewoldt booting two - including the teams first, not until seven minutes into the second quarter. Hardwick admitted his men couldnt keep up with GWS, whom he labelled incredible.Theyre a Lamborghini, arent they? he said.You look at the strength of their talent across the board and its superior. Weve got some worries; theyve got no concerns at this stage. Theyre a very good football side.Its great for GWS and Sydney, but is it great for the competition when, geez, theyre just bloody good?The Tigers host Collingwood on Friday, while GWS travel to the Gold Coast to play the Suns a day later.
