What Stephanie Ribeiros dad did before the University of Connecticut senior played her final regular-season home game constituted a pleasant surprise.What Mario Ribeiros daughter did during the game is increasingly no surprise at all.Honored alongside her classmates on the field before Sundays game against South Florida, Ribeiro was surprised when her father, who was supposed to be in Ohio for business and unavailable to attend, joined her and her mother on the field for the ceremony.She then made his trip all the more worthwhile by scoring twice and assisting on a third goal. The Huskies beat the Bulls 3-1 and completed a pivotal conference sweep, on the heels of a 3-0 win days earlier against UCF. Ribeiro had an active role in that result, too, assisting on the first two goals and putting away the game by scoring the third goal.For producing three goals and three assists for the week, thereby strengthening Connecticuts place atop the American Athletic Conference and all but eliminating two quality rivals from contention, Ribeiro is espnWs national soccer player of the week.Not that the week represented something out of character for the 5-foot-7 senior. Not this season, at least. Ribeiro completed the past week in a three-way tie for the Division I lead with 15 goals and second in the nation with 11 assists. No other player is already in double digits in both categories, and she has a comfortable lead as the national leader in points.In her first three seasons on the field, a run interrupted by a season lost to injury in 2014, Ribeiro totaled 16 goals and 15 assists. But it was only last season, when she was named the Americans midfielder of the year, that she truly offered a hint of the point production that was to follow this fall.On the opening goal against South Florida, Ribeiro was left startlingly open in the box but still had to do the work of chesting down Rachel Hills pass and, in the same motion, sweeping it past the goalkeeper before any defenders could react. It was a goal-scorers finish. But she was no less the playmaker in returning the favor on a goal by Hill in that game. With the ball out wide on the left, Ribeiro picked out her target and put the cross on Hills head at the far post.In the win against UCF, she played in Hill with a deft pass from midfield and delivered a quality free kick that led to a goal, but she also beat the keeper one-on-one after a turnover.Make the play or finish the play, she does it all.Once a power in the womens game, producing All-Americans and College Cup appearances in droves, Connecticut has enjoyed only a few surges this century, most notably when the combined production of Kristin Graczyk and Jessica Gjertsen took the Huskies to the College Cup in 2003. What Ribeiro made clear to her dad and everyone else this past week was that with she and Hill, another extended postseason run should not qualify as any kind of surprise.Elvis Grbac Jersey . Isner, ranked No. 14, won his eighth career singles title and took the title in New Zealand for the second time after his victory in 2010. The match was similar to Isners quarterfinal victory over fifth-seeded Philipp Kohlschreiber which went to three sets, all tiebreaks and contained no breaks of serve.

The 49ers made the moves to help bolster a receiver unit that has been decimated by injuries. San Francisco began training camp last week without top wideout Michael Crabtree -- out for at least half the season after tearing his Achilles tendon in May -- and three other receivers have missed time this week. Collie played the past four seasons with the Indianapolis Colts, but appeared in only one game last year due to injury. He had 173 receptions during his first three seasons with the Colts. Hawkins was reeleased by New England on Wednesday after playing five seasons with the Tennessee Titans.dddddddddddd Hawkins had 47 receptions for the Titans in 2011 and 71 overall with Tennessee. Mario Manningham, who started 10 games at wide receiver for the 49ers last season, has yet to practice this summer while he continues to rehabilitate a knee injury suffered in a Dec. 23 game. Kyle Williams -- who like Manningham tore knee ligaments last season -- and receivers A.J. Jenkins and Kassim Osgood each have missed practices this week because of apparent hamstring injuries. To make room on their roster for the two newcomers, the 49ers waived rookie centre Sherman Carter and rookie punter Colton Schmidt. ' ' '
