The Philadelphia Wings named Blane Harrison the 10th head coach in team history on Monday. Harrison replaces Johnny Mouradian, who will remain the Wings general manager, a post he has held for the past three seasons. "We have always planned to groom Blane for the head coach role and we are pleased with his progress and development over the past two seasons. As an organization, we feel strongly the time for change is upon us and we look forward to the new direction of this team under Blane," said president Michael French. "He has earned the respect and admiration of the players through his role as offensive and defensive coordinator and we expect a seamless transition to his appointment as head coach." Harrison joined the Wings staff in 2011 as the teams defensive coordinator, and spent the 2013 season as the clubs offensive coordinator. A native of Whitby, Ontario, Harrison played collegiately at Michigan State University and spent one season as an assistant coach at his alma mater. Prior to joining the Wings, Harrison was an assistant coach for the Orlando Titans and Detroit Turbos, formerly of the NLL. In 2010, Harrison was named an assistant coach of the U.S. National Indoor Lacrosse Team for the 2011 World Indoor Lacrosse Tournament. "It is an extreme honor to be named the head coach of this fine organization. I want to thank the ownership group for giving me this opportunity," said Harrison. "As with other professional sports leagues, we operate in a performance-driven environment. As such, our success is determined by wins and ultimately winning the Champions Cup. That is our goal." Mouradian will focus his duties on team personnel planning and player procurement. He was instrumental in bringing in new talent as well as experienced box lacrosse players and NLL stars to the Wings organization over the past three seasons, and looks to continue developing the Wings roster. Former Wings captain Tom Hajek will remain on the staff in his current position as defensive coordinator for the 2014 season. Knicks Jerseys 2020 .

LONDON -- Everything is falling into place for Novak Djokovic at the World Tour Finals, which will make a welcome change, given some of his tribulations the past six months.On Thursday, we will be spared a potential second-round clash between the Serb and Gael Monfils, who withdrew from the Tour Finals because of a rib injury he picked up last month in Stockholm.Monfils rope-a-dope tactics infuriated those inside Arthur Ashe Stadium and beguiled Djokovic in their US Open semifinal clash just a couple months ago. No one is probably happier to see Monfils exit the tournament than Djokovic, who won that match in four difficult sets.?You know, you work so hard for this moment, then [to] not be able [to] play your best is a huge deception for me, Monfils said in a news conference Wednesday. To not be able to finish it, I attempted to play in two matches. I have a couple of stuff I wanted to show. Im disappointed.One mans loss is anothers gain, though, and now alternate David Goffins trip to London wont be as just a tourist.There will be pride on the line in Thursdays afternoon session. Like all the original members of Group Ivan Lendl, Goffin has never beaten Djokovic. His losing streak stands at four, including a semifinal loss earlier this year in Miami.With a 2-0 record this week, Djokovic is already guaranteed a place in the semifinals as the group winner; little else will be at stake when the Belgian takes on the world No. 2.It is another boost for the 12-time Grand Slam champion, who is seeking a fifth consecutive title here and sixth overall. A championship would guarantee him the year-end No. 1 ranking for the fifth time in six years. Last Monday,?Andy Murray ended Djokovics 122-week reign at the top.Unlike Murray, who faces a tough battle against Stan Wawrinka?on Friday to potentially secure his place in the last four, Djokovic can put his feet up with an extra days rest.It could mean another trip to one of Londons green spots with his family.?Well, Hyde Park is one of thhe nicest parks there is in this city, Djokovic said of a venture outside earlier this week.dddddddddddd Because of its vastness, I guess you have so many different contents: the lake, nature, different amusement for adults and for children. My son is here. Obviously, I try to dedicate my time daily to him, at least in the morning.We take a stride. We play with the ducks and swans, ball, playground. It keeps me relaxed. It keeps me grounded as well. I get to spend time with my family and him, quality time. Its very important.Djokovic just needs to better Murray this week, which has become a more conceivable prospect as the week has progressed. The Scot might be on a 21-match win streak (including four titles), but he faces a nightmare run of three matches in three days, should he make it to the final.Playing a 3-hour, 20-minute marathon against Kei Nishikori?on Wednesday did not help his cause. Murray needed an ice bath after that grueling, three-set win.Although Djokovic doesnt have much on the line Thursday, Milos Raonic and Dominic Thiem will compete in a straight shootout in the evening session, with the winner awarded second place -- and the coveted semifinal spot -- in the group.Hes playing well, Raonic said of the 23-year-old Austrian. Hes been doing stuff well throughout this whole year. Just like myself, he played extremely well at the beginning of the year. Hasnt necessarily played his best tennis since.Fortunately for me, I hope it works out that way. This is one of my best surfaces. I dont know if indoor hard courts is necessarily his. So hopefully I can take time away from him and play on my terms and have him react to the things I put forward and try to push him around.As the home stretch of this years ATP World Tour Finals approaches, the players are feeling the building pressure to win or go home. Everyone except Djokovic, that is. ' ' '
