Sunday State Sports Briefs; Jennings, Ellis take out All-Star snub on Warriors

Wisconsin Sports
-- Snubbed for the upcoming NBA All-Star game, Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis both scored 20 points to power a come-from-behind 109-102 victory over Golden State for the Milwaukee Bucks.

MILWAUKEE - Snubbed for the upcoming NBA All-Star game, Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis both scored 20 points to power a come-from-behind 109-102 victory over Golden State for the Milwaukee Bucks.

Trailing 55-51 at halftime, the Bucks opened the third quarter with a 23-10 run and never trailed again. Jennings nailed five three-pointers in that quarter as Milwaukee outscored the visitors 35-19.

The two guards for the Bucks got plenty of help from Ersan Ilyasova and Larry Sanders. Each had a double-double, with 18 points and a dozen rebounds for Ilyasova and 16 points and 11 rebounds for Sanders, who has had at least one blocked shot in 29 straight games.

Warriors center Andrew Bogut was inactive for the game, but he made his first appearance at the Bradley Center since being traded to the Warriors.

The bat which repeatedly disrupted the afternoon college game between Marquette and Providence didn’t make an appearance.

The hottest team in the WCHA tripped up the coldest Saturday when the Wisconsin men’s hockey team completed a sweep of Alaska-Anchorage, 2-1. The Badgers have lost just once in their last 13 games, while the Seawolves have won just once in their last 12. Both Wisconsin goals and the single Alaska goal came in a busy second period. Tyler Barnes and Jefferson Dahl gave goalie Landon Peterson all the scoring he would need. Wisconsin’s record is now 11-9-5, including 8-5-5 in conference play, good for a fourth place tie. UW plays at North Dakota next weekend.
