ORANGE BEACH, Ala. -- No. 7 seed Tennessee scored less than a minute into the game and never looked back in a 2-0 victory over No. 10 seed Ole Miss in the first round of the SEC Tournament on Monday afternoon in Orange Beach, Ala.The Volunteers scored their quickest goal of the season to go up 1-0 just 45 seconds into the game. Mackenzie Gouner sprung Hannah Wilkinson free in the box with a good ball over the top of the defense and the New Zealand native calmly chipped Ole Miss goalkeeper Marnie Merritt for her 11th goal of the season.The quick start didnt deflate the Rebels, however, as they generated a handful of quality chances throughout the game. Ole Miss outshot Tennessee, 9-4, in the opening 45 minutes but had just three shots on target. UT had the upper hand in corner kicks with four compared to just two for the Rebels and went to the break leading 1-0.Ole Miss continued to press early in the second half and nearly pulled level on multiple occasions. A great defensive play by Rylie OKeefe denied a sure goal for the Rebels in the 55th minute. The second-team All-SEC selection made a perfect slide tackle to dispossess Ole Miss forward Gabby Little in front of a wide-open net in the 55th minute. Wilkinson had a couple of half chances for Tennessee minutes later, but sent one over the crossbar and another wide.The Vols survived another close call in the 68th minute when Shae Yanez made an incredible save from point-blank range on CeCe Kizer before the rebound attempt hit off the bottom of the crossbar. Yanez was stellar on the night, making six saves to record her third solo shutout of the season.After weathering the storm by Ole Miss, Carlyn Baldwin put the game on ice for the Volunteers by converting a penalty kick in the 82nd minute. Ariel Kupritz drew the call after being taken down in the box on a breakaway by the Rebels goalkeeper, who was shown a red card on the play. Baldwin calmly slotted the penalty kick home to the lower left corner to give Tennessee a 2-0 lead.Ole Miss finished with a 19-13 shot advantage but only had a 6-5 edge in shots on goal. Gretchen Harknett led all players with five shots for the afternoon. The victory helped Tennessee improve to 15-12-5 all-time in SEC Tournament games and 2-1-2 under Brian Pensky. The Vols almost remained unbeaten this season when leading at halftime, improving to 8-0.With the win, the Big Orange advance to the SEC Tournament quarterfinals for a rematch with No. 2 seed Auburn. The Vols will try to avenge a 3-1 loss to the Tigers last Thursday in their regular-season finale. UT and Auburn will square off on Wednesday at 1 p.m. ET on the SEC Network.

Adidas Avalanche Jerseys . The CFLs leading rusher kept adding to his gaudy numbers this season and scored the winning touchdown with just over two minutes to play. The New Westminster, B.C., native plowed three yards into the end zone for the last score of a heated, see-saw battle between the two teams with the best records in the CFL. Milan Lucic and Kyle Okposo, two of the NHLs top free agents, took full advantage of two of the leagues worst teams eager to pair a veteran with a young star.The 28-year-old wingers each got $42 million, seven-year contracts Friday even though neither is a proven or prolific scorer.Okposo, coming off a 22-goal year with the New York Islanders, moved upstate to join the Buffalo Sabres, who havent made the playoffs since 2011 or finished higher than seventh in their division in three years.Lucic, who scored just 20 times last season with the Los Angeles Kings, is following the money to play for the lowly Edmonton Oilers.Its about time this team starts heading in the right direction, he said of the Oilers, who want to surround Connor McDavid with experienced talent.NHL teams didnt waste time making a flurry of deals on the first shift of free agency. None involved a superstar player, not after Steven Stamkos decided to stay in Tampa Bay with an eight-year, $68 million contract agreed to earlier this week.Two days later, Tampa Bay may have made the best series of moves overall in a bid to stay near the top in the Eastern Conference. The Stanley Cup contender signed standout defenseman Victor Hedman to a $63 million, eight-year extension and goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy to a $10.5 million, three-year extension.Its been a good week for us, Lightning general manager Steve Yzerman said.It has been a bad decade for the Oilers, who havent made the playoffs since they lost Game 7 of the 2006 Stanley Cup Finals to the Carolina Hurricanes and had the fewest points in the Western Conference last season for the second time in three years.Lucic said two people, Oilers general manager Peter Chiarelli and the 19-year-old McDavid, were the reason he joined a franchise that most highly touted free agents have ignored in recent summers.The McDavid factor changes it all, Lucic said.Lucic was also lured to Edmonton in part because of his relationship with Chiarelli, who was his general manager when he played for the Boston Bruins. Chiarelli said 12 teams tried to sign Lucic, indicating one of them was the Kings, the only franchise that couldve offered him an eight-year deal under the NHLs collective bargaining agreement.He was offered a longer term, Chiarelli said. He was offered more money.Like Lucic, Okposo will get a chance to play with one of the leagues most promising players, 19-year-old center Jack Eichel.ddddddddddddHe knows Jacks a great, young player, Sabres general manager Tim Murray said.Heres a look at some of the other notable moves on the opening day of NHL free agency:- The New York Islanders signed forwards Andrew Ladd (seven years, $38.5 million) and Jason Chimera (two years, $4.5 million) after losing Okposo and Nielsen.- The Vancouver Canucks signed winger Loui Eriksson (six years, $36 million) coming off his 30-goal, 33-assist season in Boston.- The Detroit Red Wings signed center Frans Nielsen (six years, $31.5 million) to address a need with the departure of Pavel Datsyuk and re-signed center Darren Helm (five years, $19.25 million) before he could have been on the market.- After spending his entire, 10-season career in St. Louis, David Backes (five years, $30 million) bolted to play for the Bruins.- The Montreal Canadiens signed forward Alexander Radulov (one year, $5.75 million) to play in the NHL for the first time since he was with the Nashville Predators during the 2011-12 season.- The Calgary Flames signed forward Troy Brouwer (four years, $18 million) hoping he can bring some success he helped St. Louis and Chicago have in the postseason.- The San Jose Sharks added forward Mikkel Boedker (four years, $16 million) and defenseman David Schlemko (four years, $8.4 million) to bolster their chances of getting back to the Stanley Cup Finals.- The Florida Panthers, stockpiling goaltenders, signed James Reimer (five years, $17 million) with Roberto Luongo and Reto Berra on the roster.- The Toronto Maple Leafs, who probably dreamed of bringing Stamkos back home, had to settle for signing winger Matt Martin (four years, $10 million) to perhaps play on their fourth line.- The Philadelphia Flyers signed forward Dale Weise (four years, $9.4 million) to address one of the teams needs.- The Minnesota Wild signed center Eric Staal (three years, $10.5 million) four years after making a splash by giving Zach Parise and Ryan Suter 13-year, $98 million contracts.---AP Hockey Writer John Wawrow and AP Sports Writer Stephen Whyno contributed to this story.
