Theo Walcott will fly back to London after withdrawing from England’s World Cup qualifiers against San Marino and Montenegro through injury. It is anticipated the winger will be sidelined for between seven and 10 days. Walcott had been expected to start Friday night’s 8-0 thrashing of San Marino but instead is now on Arsenal’s list of injury doubts for their Premier League encounter with Reading at the Emirates Stadium on March 30. Arsenal team-mate Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain started in his place in Serravalle and got on the scoresheet in the rout. After the game, Hodgson told BBC Radio Five Live: “Theo overstretched slightly crossing a ball and immediately felt a slight problem in the pelvic area. “He went straight off the pitch and had a scan this morning and it showed a slight tear in the pelvic muscle. “It kept him out tonight and will keep him out on Tuesday but hopefully won’t keep him out for much longer. “We did all we could to stop him aggravating it but these things happen sometimes in training.” Press Association
A statement on the Arsenal website said the 24-year-old was struggling with a “minor hip/groin injury”. The statement added: “The Arsenal forward sustained the problem in training with the national team on Thursday and will fly back on Saturday to be assessed by the Club’s medical staff.”

By Peter HallMANCHESTER, England (Reuters) – Lucas Moura’s first Premer League hat-trick helped Tottenham Hotspur climb above Chelsea into third, after a 4-0 victory over bottom side Huddersfield Town at the new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium yesterday.With Chelsea not in action until Sunday when they take on title-chasing Liverpool, Tottenham cruised past the already-relegated Yorkshire side to move on to 67 points, one ahead of Maurizio Sarri’s side.Spurs also forged four points clear of their neighbours Arsenal, who travel to Watford tomorrow night.At the other end of the table, Cardiff City edged closer to the drop with a 2-0 defeat at Burnley, while Brighton & Hove Albion’s third successive league defeat, a humiliating 5-0 home loss to Bournemouth, heightened their relegation fears. In the absence of the injured Harry Kane and the rested Son Heung-min, though, Spurs still made it three wins out of three at their inspiring new home, Victor Wanyama’s early goal being followed by Lucas’s treble, which featured two late strikes.The victory was an important one for Tottenham, who face a daunting trip to league leaders Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday, before the same fixture takes place in the Premier League next weekend. “After the game when Harry got injured, everyone believed Sonny was going to step up and is going to be the man, but we have seen today Lucas got a hat-trick and it was an unbelievable afternoon for him,” Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino said.“It is going to help and bring him confidence. We have ahead a very tough period, two games against Manchester City and then Brighton.”CARDIFF EDGE CLOSER TO DROPFive points from safety, Cardiff travelled to fellow relegation candidates Burnley knowing they need to start picking up points with time running out this season, but they found themselves behind just after the half-hour mark.Chris Wood’s close-range header did the damage, with the New Zealand international making sure of the win in stoppage time, inflicting a third successive defeat on Cardiff, who have just five games left to avoid the drop. Brighton are anything but safe in 17th after slipping to a third successive defeat of their own, with Bournemouth’s comprehensive victory moving them onto 41 points with safety in sight.Brighton and Cardiff meet on Tuesday at the Amex Stadium, where victory for Brighton would leave Cardiff seven points from safety with just four games to play.Elsewhere, 16th-placed Southampton also moved one step closer to survival with a 3-1 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers at St Mary’s, while relegated Fulham secured just their fifth league win of the season with a 2-0 victory over Everton at Craven Cottage.
Two years ago, Syracuse’s starting center was senior Kayla Alexander. Last year, it was senior Shakeya Leary. This year though, the Orange has a much younger rotation at center.“I think when you have three players that can play minutes for you at that spot, it’s a luxury,” Syracuse head coach Quentin Hillsman said.SU’s group of centers is highlighted by sophomore Briana Day, and supported by her twin Bria and freshman Amber Witherspoon. The trio has split time at the position through three games this season and will continue to do so when No. 23 SU (3-0) takes on Jacksonville (0-2) at Swisher Gymnasium in Jacksonville, Florida at 3 p.m. on Saturday.Including walk-on Michelle van Dyke, the Orange has four players that are at least 6 feet, 4 inches tall. Duke is the only other team in the Atlantic Coast Conference with more 6-foot-4 players on its roster with five.Though Syracuse doesn’t have an established center like it’s had the past two seasons, Hillsman described the situation as leadership by committee.AdvertisementThis is placeholder textBriana Day started the Orange’s season opener against Fordham, but only played four first-half minutes. She played 15 minutes in the second half, but Hillsman’s use of Bria Day and Witherspoon early on showed he trusts them to contribute.In the Orange’s 90-84 win over Duquesne on Wednesday night, Briana Day scored 22 points and pulled down 19 rebounds.“We just work together and help each other,” Briana Day said. “If we’re not doing something, someone has to come in and pick it up.”As a freshman, Briana Day played in every game, but didn’t make a single start. She led the conference’s bench players in rebounds and blocks, averaging 5.8 rebounds per game and 1.2 blocks per game.Following Leary’s graduation, she has to fill the starting center role as a sophomore.“I definitely have a lot of responsibility, but I don’t think it’s too much to handle because we have great other players to step in as well,” Briana Day said.When players go out for team dinners — so far this year at restaurants including Prime Steakhouse and The Cheesecake Factory — the centers hang out with each other. Their height naturally draws them together, which creates even better chemistry on the court, Briana Day said.Witherspoon said she had to relearn how to communicate with people, how to play basketball and how to live on her own throughout the preseason.But the Days helped her adjust to the new environment. On Sunday, in her first collegiate game, Witherspoon was overwhelmed early on.Once again, the Day sisters eased her emotions.“I don’t think I could have got through (the transition to college) without them,” Witherspoon said. “Bria is like my little mini-coach on the sideline. She’s always making sure I know what’s going on.”Though the Orange’s centers are young, they have opportunities to step up as the season evolves.With the high-tempo style that Hillsman wants to play, having three serviceable centers gives him options. Against Fordham, Hillsman made 31 first-half substitutions as his team defended in a full-court press and attacked in transition.“It helps us because we can get breaks,” Bria Day said. “Since we play so fast we won’t get tired. It helps us get a fresh pair of legs every time we go in.” Comments Published on November 20, 2014 at 12:12 am Contact Paul: pmschwed@syr.edu | @pschweds Facebook Twitter Google+
Published on April 15, 2015 at 10:52 pm Contact Chris: cjlibona@syr.edu | @ChrisLibonati Facebook Twitter Google+ Taylor Gait knew it. Her mother knew it. And her father knew it.It made him sick, and Nicole Gait said it was written on her husband’s face.Sitting on the Manley Field House turf, Taylor pleaded, “Why me?” while tears streamed down her face. On that play during Syracuse’s alumni game in late January 2014, the then-sophomore had torn her right ACL and meniscus for the first time.“This was my time, I was going to be so good,” Taylor confided to her mother in the training room, “I was ready. My (left) knee was so good.”Since the first time Taylor tore her left ACL and meniscus in late April 2011, she had not played a full regular-season lacrosse game until this season because of her seven combined knee injuries. Despite her mother telling her it was OK to stop playing, the junior midfielder has played in every game this season and scored 16 goals.AdvertisementThis is placeholder textFive of the six procedures required to repair Taylor’s knees have been on her left one. Another left knee injury could end her career. Doctors told her another surgery would be too invasive, yet she could possibly play another three years thanks to a redshirt freshman year and a pending NCAA waiver for a sixth year of eligibility.And by persistently returning to the field, she has been able to fulfill a promise she made to play for her father, SU head coach Gary Gait, who etched his name in SU history as one of the greatest men’s lacrosse players ever.“I think to her it was a light at the tunnel, like, ‘I’m going to do this. I’m going to play for my dad,’” Nicole Gait said. “‘My dad came here because I was going to play for him, so I’m going to make it work. What do I need to do?’”In the summer of 2007, Taylor and Gary talked at the kitchen table while the family still lived in Denver. Her father wanted to coach the SU women’s team, and he wanted Taylor to play for him there. She played for Real Colorado, a soccer club with nearly 5,000 players and was reluctant to move to Syracuse, but lacrosse coursed through her family’s veins.It was then that the two made a promise to team up at SU, and that promise has driven her ever since.The first time she tore her left meniscus and ACL, nobody touched her as she sat crying on the lacrosse field at Christian Brothers (New York) Academy as a high school junior.Twenty minutes passed, she said. Gary was on a bus at Syracuse, leaving for an away game, and her mother was teaching dance at their house.A teammate’s father shooed away first responders, Taylor said. When she had to be on bed rest for two weeks after the surgery, Taylor wanted to move around, even to just have her friends drive her around the block, but couldn’t move.“I had never been hurt before,” Taylor said. “… When it happened, I was like, ‘I don’t even know how to be injured. I don’t know. Why can’t I play?’”After surgery and rehab, her father noticed she couldn’t fully extend her leg, and she experienced nerve pinching in her left leg. Both effects have yet to subside, she said.Taylor rehabbed until late March 2012, when she returned for her high school senior season. In her first weekend back, she pulled herself off the field because something was wrong with her knee.She eventually visited three doctors. Each told her they couldn’t figure out what exactly was wrong, but she had likely torn her meniscus again.Leslie Matthews, an orthopedic surgeon for the Baltimore Ravens, repaired Taylor’s meniscus in March 2012. She woke up from the anesthesia freezing cold — a unique reaction to the surgical drug — and soon cried. Matthews found her left ACL was partially torn and she’d have to come back in two weeks for another surgery.She decided to redshirt her freshman year at Syracuse. Then warming up for a home game she couldn’t even play in, her left knee gave out on a simple cut. This time she tore just her left meniscus. Her left knee developed scar tissue, so Matthews cleaned it out twice in the summer of 2013.Taylor rehabbed again, and things were going well until the alumni game. Within a week of tearing her ACL, she found herself under Matthews’ knife again.“We were leaving the next day to play our first game and she tore her good knee,” Gary said. “That was kind of heartbreaking.”Through each injury, Nicole reminded her daughter that lacrosse did not have to define her.But she still returned to sports, attending every CBA soccer practice even though she couldn’t play her senior year. At SU, she scheduled physical therapy around practice so that she could throw a lacrosse ball around and fine-tune her stick work, so she was still improving although she couldn’t play.After she tore her left ACL and meniscus a second time, Taylor and her mother talked about whether she needed to come back to lacrosse again. Taylor questioned whether she wanted to come back, but didn’t waver.“I said to her once, ‘You are so much more than lacrosse… Who cares?’” Nicole said.“‘Mom, I’m going to play again,’” Nicole said her daughter told her. “‘Stop saying that. I will play.’”And Taylor has.While she’s regained the ability to run, it has taken baby steps to get back into lacrosse.She played on the second midfield line in SU’s first game against Denver on Feb. 6, tallying a goal and an assist. Then she cracked the starting lineup against Florida on March 10, scoring a goal.On April 7, she finally emerged. She scored a hat trick in a four-minute span to bring SU back in an eventual loss against Notre Dame.After the game, her mother sat in the bleachers. Nicole occasionally surveyed the then-empty Carrier Dome turf. Her eyes began to well up.“Six surgeries, four years not playing and then you see what she’s doing,” Nicole said. “… It’s amazing to me.”Taylor sometimes runs four miles after practice, even though she says she shouldn’t.But to this point, the injuries haven’t stopped her. Not from running. Not from playing lacrosse. And not from carrying out her promise to her father.“Me and my dad have a special relationship,” Taylor said. “I feel like he’s the one motivating me every time.” Comments
