TULSA, Okla. -- Freshman Lindy Waters made the game-winning basket as Oklahoma State edged in-state rival Tulsa 71-67 Saturday, but both Oklahoma State coach Brad Underwood and Tulsas Frank Haith saw different keys to what both agreed was an unsightly affair.Underwood pointed to the toughness and resourcefulness of freshman guard Brandon Averette, who stepped in for leading scorer Jawun Evans and scored a career-high 17 points with three assists and three steals, helping the young Cowboys, now 7-2, snap a six-game losing streak in true road games.I love our freshmen, theyre fearless, Underwood said. Ive seen veteran teams get punched in the mouth like they did in the second half and fold, but they hung in there. Theyve got great heart and swagger. Im proud of what they did.Haith was left to rue his teams 18 turnovers and 41-30 rebounding deficit.Thats where we lost the game, he said. Its very difficult to win when you give up 17 offensive rebounds and have 18 turnovers. They are going to be aggressive on the ball and you cant give in to the pressure.Waters, one of four freshmen on the floor for OSU throughout many of the key late moments, hit the basket with the shot clock nearing zero and despite tight defense from Tulsas Pat Birt. Tulsa had a chance to tie, but Sterling Taplin missed a layup attempt and OSU (7-2) secured the rebound. Fellow freshman Thomas Dziagwa, who made three big second-half 3-pointers, made two free throws to secure the win with less than a second remaining.Jeffrey Carroll had 13 points and a team-high eight rebounds for OSU. Dziagwa scored 11 points.Taplin had 16 points and Jaleel Wheeler 15 for Tulsa (4-4). Wheelers third 3-pointer of the second half, all from the left corner, gave Tulsa a 60-57 lead with 4:57 to play, its first lead since 15-14. The Cowboys clawed back on a pull-up by Averette, and 3-pointers by Leyton Hammonds and Dziagwa to lead 65-60.Taplin scored on two drives and made one of two free throws to pull Tulsa to 67-65, then Junior Etou tied the score at 69 on a rebound basket before Waters game-winner.Averette played 37 minutes after playing just eight in a one-point loss to Maryland.It was different, but I go against the best point guard in America every day in practice, so that prepared me for it, Averette said.Ahead 17-16, the Cowboys took command with a 12-0 run triggered by a Phil Forte 3-pointer and fueled by seven free throws, pushing the lead to 29-16. The Cowboys forced Tulsa into 11 turnovers and had a 13-rebound advantage in leading 38-30 at the break, thanks partly to two late rebound baskets by Mitchell Solomon, including a tip-in at the buzzer.BIG PICTUREBoth coaches saw positives from their young squads still adjusting to each players skills and habits.Tulsa executed with much better flow on offense in the second half, which Underwood credited to adjustments made by Haith.Theyve got an NCAA Tournament team there, Underwood said of Tulsa. Did you see their first game? Not very good, but theyve made tremendous strides. Frank is a very good offensive coach and they did some things in the second half that gave us a lot of trouble.Were developing. Were getting better, Haith said. I think out best basketball is ahead of us.On the other hand, Underwood said his teams first-half defense, which forced 11 Tulsa turnovers, was as good as the Cowboys have played this year.I knew it would be ugly early without Jawun, but I loved our effort, he said. That was as hard as weve played this year,NEW STARTERSOklahoma State: The Cowboys were without leading scorer Evans (23.6 ppg), out with a bruise of the AC joint in his left shoulder suffered in practice Thursday. Guard Phil Forte also did not start due to a bruised hip but entered at the 15:51 mark. Averette and Carroll replaced them in the starting lineup.Tulsa: After a 1-for-10 shooting performance in his last game that dropped his season percentage to 31 percent, Pat Birt, Tulsas leading returning scorer from a year ago, did not start for the first time this season, and was replaced by freshman Lawson Korita. Korita finished with nine points and Birt had four.TRADING TREYS:With 9:20 left, Dziagwa made a 3-pointer to give OSU a 53-45 advantage, starting a string of four possessions in which either he or TUs Wheeler made a 3-pointer. Wheelers second left OSU up 56-51.UP NEXTOklahoma State is back home Wednesday against Arkansas-Pine Bluff.Tulsa hosts Texas State on Dec. 17. Billiga Nike Air Max 270 Dam .

Aaron Mooys move to Manchester City has transformed the midfielders life, making him one of the highest-paid Australian footballers.Mooy sealed a move to the English Premier League giants on Thursday, joining from sister club Melbourne City and staying underneath the City Football Group (CFG) umbrella.There was plenty of interest in the Socceroo midfielder from across the continent but Mooys decision to stay in the City family has reaped him rich dividends.Its understood the 25-year-olds contract is worth around AU$4 million a year and lasts until 2020, setting the Socceroo up for life.Only a handful of Australians have earned similar wages.Lucas Neills weekly wage of STG65,000 at West Ham equated to an annual pay-packet of over A$6 million, with Mark Viduka and Harry Kewell earning similar amounts during their time in the Premier League.Tim Cahills highest wage at Everton approached a similar level, with the all-time Socceroos leading goalscorer able to extend his earning capacity with lucrative stints in USA and China.While Manchester City have put Mooy on Premier League wages, its unlikely he will earn his wages playing in the English top tier.He could travel with City to Germany and China on their pre-season tour later this month but cracking into Pep Guarrdiolas star-laden first-team for the Premier League season may be a bridge too far.ddddddddddddA loan deal to a European club or to Englands second-tier Championship has been mooted for Mooy, who set an A-League record last season by creating 21 assists.It remains to be seen whether clubs that missed out on a permanent deal for the midfielder will rekindle their interest with a view for a loan deal for the upcoming 2016/17 season.Belgian outfit Club Brugge were heavily linked, as were clubs in the Netherlands, Germany and Turkey.Additionally, City has loan arrangements with several European clubs - including Spains Espanyol.With key Socceroos matches on the radar, national team boss Ange Postecoglou will be keen to ensure Mooy doesnt swap regular first-team football for a long spell on the sidelines.Mooy has developed into a a fundamental part of Postecoglous team while at Melbourne City, most recently impressing in Australias 2-1 loss to England in May.The Socceroos have five World Cup qualifiers between September and November, including a home date with arch-rivals Japan back in Melbourne, that will require Mooys participation.
