PERTH, Australia -- Poland defeated Canada 2-1 at the Hopman Cup on Sunday, leaving Milos Raonic and Eugenie Bouchard with a 1-1 group record at the eight-nation mixed team event. Grzegroz Panfil, a substitute for injured Wimbledon semifinalist Jerzy Janowicz, stunned the 11th-ranked Raonic 7-6 (1), 6-3 in the biggest upset of the day. Panfil holds the No. 288 position in the world rankings. In the womens match, fifth-ranked Agnieszka Radwanska outlasted Bouchard 6-3, 6-7 (7), 6-2. The 19-year-old Canadian is ranked 32nd in the world. Raonic and Bouchard later teamed up for a 6-3, 5-7, 10-3 mixed doubles win over Radwanska and Panfil. The Czech Republic swept defending champion Spain 3-0 in the other tie Sunday. The Canadians opened the tournament with a win over Australia and will close out the round robin Thursday with a match against Italy. Panfil, 25, lost his only career match at the ATP level back in 2006. Raonic, from Thornhill, Ont., came out firing but was overwhelmed by the inspired underdog in 81 minutes. "I was sloppy at the start and then he closed out the match incredibly (well)," Raonic said. The 23-year-old Canadian won the Lionel Conacher Award earlier in the week as The Canadian Press male athlete of the year. Raonic is also gearing up for the Australian Open, which begins in two weeks time. "The time to be playing my best tennis is after January 13," he said. "Of course I hate to lose, I want to win these kind of matches. But its not the end of the world. "This is also a training week for us and Im pleased to have three days now to work on things." Bouchard put in a solid effort against the more experienced Radwanska in a match that lasted two and a half hours. "I felt like I didnt play well in the first set, I lost a few games in a row," Bouchard said. "But I was happy to at least turn it around and make it a match. "I was a bit tired at end and she kept her level up all the way. It was encouraging that I was able to raise my game, but I need to keep that level more consistently." Bouchard saved three match points in the second-set tiebreaker before converting on her first set point to pull even. "I was trying to stay with her in the second set, but shes a tricky player and gets a lot of balls back," she said. "I missed a few of my finish shots. Its always disappointing to lose, I need to do some more work and get more consistency into my game. "But I did serve well and put pressure on her. I just hit a few too many mistakes." Bouchard won the Bobbie Rosenfeld Award earlier this week as The Canadian Press female athlete of the year. Cheap Chicago Cubs Jerseys .

The winner of this matchup between these two 16th-seeded squads advances to face the tournaments top overall seed, Kentucky, in the second round on Thursday. Western Kentucky is a part of this years Big Dance after an unexpected run through the 2012 Sun Belt Conference Tournament, earning the automatic. The season which looked to be heading for a disappointing finish, hit its low when coach Ken McDonald was fired after a 5-11 start. McDonald had led the team to two NCAA Tournaments, including a magical Sweet 16 run in the past four seasons. However, interim coach Ray Harper took over on Jan 12. and accumulated a 10-6 record, which includes the four-game run through the SBC Tournament as a seven-seed. MVSUs appearance in the NCAA Tournament is much more expected. The Delta Devils dominated their Southwestern Athletic Conference schedule, which including winning 17 in a row on their way to a regular season title. MVSU narrowly escaped a couple of upsets in the SWAC Tournament, but punched its ticket on Saturday with a 71-69 victory over the second-seed, Texas Southern. The Delta Devils played 10 power conference programs in their non-conference slate, but went 0-10 against those schools. Coach Sean Woods has not led MVSU to the NCAA Tournament as a coach, but he gained invaluable experience during his playing days at Kentucky. Woods had the credit of an Elite Eight game- wwinning shot taken away from him by Christian Laettners unforgettable turnaround.dddddddddddd If Woods leads his team to the second round, he will get a chance to upset his alma mater. The Delta Devils and Hilltoppers have met three times before, and WKU has won all three encounters. WKU defeated MVSU on Dec. 18, 1997 the last time the programs met. WKU is riding a six-game winning streak into this one, but none of the victories have been by more than six points. WKU can not afford to get into a shootout with MVSU, as it finished last in the Sun Belt Conference in three- point percentage. The scrappy Hilltoppers had to overcome a two-point halftime deficit in the SBC Tournament championship game to punch their ticket. Forward Teeng Akol came up big in the championship with 23 points and four blocks, but he has not tallied that many points in his previous three games. George Fant is capable of stepping up, as he showed in the SBC Semifinals with 19 points, and Derrick Gordons team leading scoring and rebounding averages make him a player to watch as well. During their run through the SWAC, the Delta Devils outscored their conference rivals by 10.4 ppg. MVSU showed it is not trigger happy from three-point range by making 32.8 percent of its 755 shots from distance. Woods had to be pleased that despite his teams very difficult non-conference schedule, the team managed to slightly outrebound its opponents for the season. Senior center Paul Crosby won the SWAC Player of the Year for his efforts inside. He led the team in rebounding 14 times and finished the season with team-high averages of 13.6 points and 7.4 boards per game. Terrence Joyner, Cor-J Cox, and Kevin Burwell are all quite important to the Delta Devils balanced attack as well. [url=http://www.cheapjerseyspl.us.com/]cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
