Pintard sworn in as minister of sports

By BRENT STUBBS Senior Sports Reporter bstubbs@tribunemedia.net

A

fter much speculation over who will be given the nod, Michael Pintard has been sworn in as the new Minister of Youth, Sports and Culture.

The ceremony took place yesterday at Government House where Pintard joined the remaining members of the Free National Movement Cabinet led by Prime Minister Hubert Minnis.

Pintard comes in as the Member of Parliament for Marco City, having defeated veteran basketball coach Norris Bain in the general

elections last week.

Many felt that he would be best suited for the Ministry of Agriculture, considering the fact that he holds an Associate of Arts Degree in Agriculture from the College of the Bahamas (now the University of the Bahamas) and he has completed several graduate courses in agricultural economics.

But Pintard comes equipped in the role that he has been placed in.

He is an accomplished playwright and humorist, teacher, motivational speaker, writer and human resource development consultant, has lectured and performed both nationally and internationally.

Many remember Pintard’s work

Will there be an encore for 2017?

That is yet to be seen as Pintard gets set for the work ahead of him as the minister and the mandate as outlined in the FNM’s ‘It’s The People’s Time’ 2017 Manifesto.

While there are some items outlined for youth, under the sports portfolio, the following have been

Gibson triple jump champion

By BRENT STUBBS Senior Sports Reporter bstubbs@tribunemedia.net WITH her parents on the sidelines cheering her on at the Nittany Lion Outdoor Track in University Park, Philadelphia, Danielle Gibson closed out her Big Ten Conference appearance as a women’s triple jump champion.

On the eve of Mother’s Day, Gibson leapt 13.76 metres or 45feet, 1 ¾-inches to win the event and, in the process, produced the number one mark in Penn State’s history under all conditions as the wind was above the allowable 4.0 metres per second.

The performance came after Gibson clinched the Big Ten Indoor Championship title a couple months ago.

“It was a good performance. It was not only attributed to myself, but my family and my team that was there,” said Gibson, a senior majoring in biotechnology.

“It was a good performance.

I’m really proud of it. It was a bit windy, but it was just me trying to stay composed, so I was really proud of it.”

Gibson admitted that she was so excited that she could have accomplished her feat with her parents on the sidelines watching.

“I had to adjust my approach because of the wind,” she said.

“Once I did that, I did pretty well.

I got to work on my second phase and it turned out quite well.

“It wasn’t just me. It was for my family and teammates. I just wanted to go out there and try and get as much points as I could for my team. Once I did that, I was quite pleased with my performance.”

Going into the remainder of her final year of college eligibility, Gibson said she’s looking forward to qualifying from the NCAA Regionals May 25-27 in Lexington, Kentucky before it’s on to the NCAA Outdoor Championships in Eugene, Oregon June 7-10 where she hopes she can end it as

NATIONAL RUGBY TEAM SET TO FACE TURKS AND CAICOS

By RENALDO DORSETT Sports Reporter rdorsett@tribunemedia.net

THE Bahamas’ senior men’s national team will be back on the pitch locally as they contest the Cup division in the 2017 Rugby Americas North Championship.

The Bahamas is scheduled to face the Turks and Caicos Islands at Winton Rugby Centre on Saturday, May 20.

Following this weekend’s match, the next game for the Bahamas will be on June 3 when they travel to face first-time participants in the tournament, the Dominican Republic.

Turks defended home turf and defeated the Dominican Republic 24-15 on May 4, in the first game of the series.

The game produced an historic feat for the country, as Jamaal Curry became the first Bahamian ever to referee an officially sanctioned international rugby match.

In their last appearance at the Rugby Americas North Championship in June 2016, the Bahamas suffered consecutive losses to Mexico, Cayman Islands and Bermuda.

This year’s event marks the 10th edition of the RAN Championship, traditionally geared toward Tier 3 North American and Caribbean teams.

Pool play began on April 22 and will continue through July 1. Unlike last year’s tournament, 2017 will not serve as an iRB World Cup qualifying event and non World Rugby full member teams return to take part.

The North Zone returns to the 2015 format with a higher Championship level and a lower Cup level, however the South Zone has been reduced to one level of three teams.

The tournament has been divided into two competitions and three divisions, accompanied with a relegation and promotion system playoff. The two competitions are the Championship League (North Zone, South Zone) and the Cup League.

The Bahamas is a member of the Cup League,

Kadeem Coleby signs with Al Manama for 37th GCC Clubs

By RENALDO DORSETT Sports Reporter rdorsett@tribunemedia.net JUST weeks after losing the league championship series, Kadeem Coleby was on the move once again and inked a deal with the team that most recently beat him as they prepare to vie for a top title in the Middle East.

Coleby signed with Al Manama for the 37th GCC Clubs Basketball Championship Tournament, hosted in Um Al Hassam, Bahrain.

Al Manama won their first two games of the tournament thus far after they opened with an 82-50 win over Ettifaq of Oman.

Coleby finished with 13 points and five rebounds. They followed with a 108-90 win over Al-Rayan of Qatar yesterday.

Al Manama finished third out of the eight teams in last year’s GCC and look to improve on last year’s finish with the additions of Coleby and formber NBA pro Nikoloz Tskitishvili.

Eight of the top local teams in the Middle East will are vying for the prestigious title, which concludes Saturday, May 20.

The two finalists will also qualify for the 2017 FIBA Asia Champions Cup to be held in China this September. Hosts Bahrain have two teams in the tournament.

The UAE and Qatar also have two teams apiece. Saudi Arabia and Oman have one each while Kuwait are not taking part.

During the Bahrain Premier League, Coleby was a member of Al Muharraq and was an integral part of the team’s run to the Cup final and league runners-up after a loss in championship series to Al Manama.

The prior season, in 2015, the former Wichita State Shocker was a key member in Al Manama’s title run last season – their fourth consecutive and 20th overall.

He finished with 23 points in the season finale.

In the previous season, the 6’9”, 250-pound forward played with Al Fateh Al Hasa of the Saudi Arabian Premier League.

He contributed to his team making it to

He prepped himself for his professional debut with Geneva in Eurobasket Summer League in Las Vegas, which is considered the top summer league for players seeking to make the pro leap to Europe.

After a collegiate career which included stops at Odessa Junior College and Louisiana Lafayette, Coleby found a home in his senior season at Wichita State.

In his senior season, Coleby ended up with an average of 12.9 points per game.

In their 36 games, in which he started 19 times, Coleby shot .360 per cent from the field (38-for-84) and .500 per cent from the free throw line (18-for-36) for a total of 96 points or an average of 2.6 ppg.

On the national team level, he was also a member of the Caribbean Basketball Confederation Championship gold medal team in 2014 and Coleby averaged 10.8 points per game.It was the seventh time a Bahamian men’s national team has captured the CBC title, and the first time since 1995.

The team advanced to the Centrobasket tournament where they failed to qualify for the Tournament of Americas. Coleby averaged 7.8 points and 4.5 rebounds per game at the Centrobasket, hosted in Nayarit, Mexico.

He averaged 9.5 points and 4.9 rebounds for Louisiana-Lafayette in his junior season, starting 30 games. He also blocked 2.4 shots a game and led the Sun Belt Conference in shooting percentage (56.1).

He scored double-figures 15 times, including a career-high 20 against Central Florida and also had a career-high 11 rebounds at Duquesne. He also was ranked 23rd in the NCAA in blocked shots.

As a sophomore at Daytona State College, he averaged 10.2 points and 8.1 rebounds. He also received first team AllMid-Florida Conference honours, was ranked fifth in Region VIII in blocked shots per game (2.4) and eighth in rebounds.

Danielle Gibson emerges as triple jump champion FROM PAGE 1 an All-American or even the national champion.

Tami, her mother, said it was the greatest Mother’s Day present she’s has ever received.

“It was a bit nerve wrecking because I knew she was going up against some pretty good talent,” she said.

“Seeing her from the first jump that she did, I knew she was ready for the competition.

“She went out there very

confident. She was very confident in herself. With this being her senior year, she wanted to leave everything out there. She wanted to really make her presence felt here at Penn State.”

Her father, Dwight Gibson, said this was a trip they had planned from last year and he and his wife were just delighted to be there for the celebrations.

“When she hit the board, I knew it was a good jump,” said Gibson of his daughter’s opening leap that sealed the deal. “I was elat-

“From last year, we planned to make the trip especially with the championships being on their home turf. This was the first time that we saw her compete in a college meet. So it was fantastic.”

On Mother’s Day, the Gibsons went out to dinner to celebrate a dual feat – Mother Day’s and the Big Ten Championship crown - with their 21-year-old daughter, who graduated from St Augustine’s College.

SMACKDOWN: It won’t be long until wrestling fans see Shinsuke Nakamura’s entire deadly arsenal.

Shinsuke Nakamura ‘the next big thing’ in WWE AS most of you all are aware, a huge part of dealing with the long NFL offseason is watching Monday Night Raw and Tuesday Night Smackdown with my sons. (A great joy as a father, I must admit.)

Also I’ve been a huge wrestling fan all of my life, I’ve seen all of the greats, so I know when ‘the next big thing’ in the WWE is going to be. So, with that being said, let’s meet Shinsuke Nakamura The journey to the WWE’s ‘Smackdown’ brand’s upper echelon will begin with battles against Dolph Ziggler and end with ‘The King of Strong Style’ sauntering around with the WWE Championship in hand. Nakamura will make that trek armed with topflight in-ring acumen, mastery of strikes and a rare amount of “it” factor.

It won’t be long until SmackDown fans see Nakamura’s entire deadly arsenal.

Nakamura’s first official match on the main roster is now set following his lat-

est collision with Ziggler.

After ‘The Showoff’, Ziggler called Nakamura out on last Tuesday’s episode of SmackDown, the former NXT champion wanted to fight Ziggler right then and there.

Ziggler, though, demanded they hold off until the Backlash pay-per-view on May 21. (More WWE marketing at work, to push the upcoming ‘Backlash’ PPV) That ‘Backlash’ matchup promises to be dynamite.

Ziggler is adept at making his opponents look great (Yes, Pro Wrestling is still fake) and couple that with Nakamura’s habit of delivering in big matches. There will be ample speed, athleticism and theatrics on display during the bout, too.

While the two rivals have yet to meet in televised action, they have competed in a number of dark matches and house show contests.

Tim Fiorvanti, of ESPN. com, has high hopes for Ziggler vs. Nakamura after seeing their first meeting.

“I saw Nakamura vs Ziggler in a pre Wrestlemania

‘dark match’ and the future of the WWE is looking awesome right about now.”

More matches like those are on their way. Expect Nakamura to put together a résumé much like 2016 Next Big Thing in the WWE AJ Styles did in 2016.

Nakamura is sure to thrill opposite Ziggler before moving on to new foes like current US Champion Kevin Owens and WWE World Champion Randy Orton.

And a steady stream of excellence between the ropes will hook fans.

When Paul Heyman said this regarding the Japanese star during Inside the Ropes Live With Paul Heyman: “If Nakamura goes

out there and puts on a Nakamura match every chance he gets, I don’t think anybody can hold him back.”

And beyond his ring

work, the master of the Kinshasa will pull in the audience by way of his charisma. It will be his key to success despite his heavy accent. Very reminiscent of ‘Kendo Nagasaki’ and ‘The Great Muta’ Pro Wrestling Hall of Famers that preceded him in the ‘70s 80s and 90s.

Nakamura exudes a rock star aura. Every in ring manoeuvre is brimming with energy. He’s a strutting peacock who kicks like a mule.

A perfect recipe for success

in today’s WWE. Keep your eye on Shinsuke Nakamura, he’s an electrifying performer, the likes of which we’ve never seen before, a magnetic artiste destined for stardom.

MAVIN SAUNDERS SERVES AS VOLUNTEER MENTOR AT RILEY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

By RENALDO DORSETT Sports Reporter rdorsett@tribunemedia.net AS he heads into his junior season, Florida State Seminoles tight end Mavin Saunders was recognised for his off the field contributions to the surrounding community in Tallahassee, Florida.

Saunders has served as a volunteer mentor at Riley Elementary School in Tallahassee, Florida for the past 18 months. He began the initiative to earn extra credit for a criminology course but has discretely continued his role well beyond the intended completion date of the programme.

“I took advantage of the opportunity and I continued doing it outside of the class because I realised the impact it had on the few kids that I have been able to reach out to. It’s important to help those kids because of the situation they are in.

In this area where Riley is, many of those kids don’t have mentors to push them, challenge them and help them to reach their potential. I’m just trying to help out, touch a few lives and do the right thing.”

The Bimini native has done the same for classrooms during his visits home in recent years and credits his upbringing for his decision-making on his path toward education and athletics in the NCAA.

“I’ve had experience back home. I’ve talked to schools so I’ve learned how to approach situations like this before. The first thing I did was to ask them about their lives at home and I think that was a different way than most people talk to them. Back home they know everything about me, they know my family, so it’s a little different here. I was blessed enough to have two older brothers that taught me to become a man as fast as possible and I realised how much of an impact it had on my life, coming from an island and to be able to come to school, play football and get a degree,” he said.

“I’m having a successful run, thank God for that, and I realised that having a platform here, being a football player, I can have an impact on the kids here because they love football.

Everyone in the city knows who you are, and by me coming and talking to them about other things other than football, its really shocked them and helped a lot of them. They try to talk to me about the games or giving them advice on how to make it. I really use the two hours to express the point to them for making the right choices, respecting your elders and it’s been really successful for the kids.”

Saunders has chosen to work with individual students each semester to gain

a firm concentration on social and academic life.

He noted that for several months he mentored a student that had potential in the classroom but an unstable life at home, while another semester brought on a student that fell short in the classroom. Both students required the same level of attention and mentorship.

“Statistics show that more black men are in prison than college, so my goal is to help them to realise the importance of going to school instead of going down the road many expected them to go down.

The area around Riley, the thing kids are exposed to, I’m just trying to show them there is a different way and I’m just trying to give them the blueprint on how to get there.”

Saunders received an Outstanding Adult Volunteer award for his efforts.

“I was pretty shocked,” he said. “I was honoured by it.”

As a sophomore, Saunders earned a noteworthy accolade in the classroom when he was named to the Atlantic Coast Conference’s Academic Honour Roll. To receive the honour, students have to maintain a 3.0 grade point average or better in the classroom.

The Seminoles finished 10-3 last season, capped by a win over the Michigan Wolverines in the Orange Bowl.

THE TRIBUNE

Freeman hits 3-run HR, Braves beat Blue Jays 10-6

By IAN HARRISON Associated Press TORONTO (AP) — Bartolo Colon gave Atlanta five innings.

That was enough on a tough night for the big right-hander.

Colon brushed off an illness and got his first victory in a month, and the Braves snapped Toronto’s five-game win streak with a 10-6 victory over the Blue Jays on Monday.

Freddie Freeman hit his 13th homer and Nick Markakis had three RBIs for Atlanta, which has won three of four. Matt Kemp had four hits and scored three times.

Colon (2-4) allowed three runs,

two earned, and seven hits. He struck out one and walked two while throwing 81 pitches.

“That was real big, because this is a hot ballclub,” Braves manager Brian Snitker said. “We come in here and these guys are swinging the bats really well. I guarantee you an outing like that will do a lot for him and his confidence going forward.”

Colon allowed fewer than four runs for the third time in eight starts this season. He said he kept the Blue Jays off balance by relying on off-speed pitches earlier and more often.

“Everything was working today,” Colon said through a translator. “Everything felt good.”

Everything, that is, except for Colon’s stomach. Already bothered by a head cold and headache, he developed an upset stomach as the day went on.

“After five, I thought that was enough for him,” Snitker said.

“We just didn’t want to push him anymore. He’d done his job at that point.”

Kemp said it was easy to tell Colon had good stuff against the Jays.

“You could even see it from left field,” Kemp said. “He was definitely moving the ball more.

When he does that, it’s tough to pick up that run.”

Kemp singled and scored in the first, singled in the third, then

doubled and scored in the fifth and sixth. He walked in his final plate appearance.

Freeman matched Washington’s Ryan Zimmerman and Milwaukee’s Eric Thames atop the NL home run leaderboard with a three-run shot off Leonel Campos. Freeman’s long drive to center was the big blow in Atlanta’s four-run sixth.

Freeman has connected against all 10 teams Atlanta has faced this season.

Markakis hit a two-run single in the first and singled home a run in the fifth.

Braves third baseman Adonis Garcia had two RBIs and scored twice. Shortstop Dansby Swanson

also had two RBIs. Making his second start of the season, Blue Jays right-hander Mike Bolsinger (0-2) allowed six runs in 4 2/3 innings.

“It was a tough outing for him,” manager John Gibbons said. “I didn’t think he had his good curveball, which is kind of vital to him.”

Toronto’s Justin Smoak hit a two-run homer off Josh Collmenter in the ninth.

Devon Travis had two RBI doubles for the Blue Jays and Jose Bautista also doubled home a run.

Catcher Mike Ohlman delivered an RBI single in the fourth for the first hit of his career.

Carrasco injured, but Indians’ bullpen stops Rays in 8-7 win

By STEVE HERRICK Associated Press CLEVELAND (AP) — After Carlos Carrasco left with an injury Monday night, the Indians bullpen managed to close things out.

Cleveland just hopes it doesn’t have to cover for the right-hander much longer.

Carrasco exited in the fourth inning because of tightness in his left pectoral muscle, but five relievers kept the lead and helped the Indians hold off the Tampa Bay Rays 8-7.

Carrasco isn’t sure if he’ll miss a start.

“I don’t worry about that,” he said. “I’m waiting until tomorrow. We’ll see what’s going and go from there.”

Cleveland’s rotation is already missing one pillar, with right-hander Corey Kluber on the disabled list because of a strained lower back.

Carrasco was pulled after a visit by manager Terry Francona following an RBI single to Brad Miller. He allowed five runs in 3 2/3 innings and left with Cleveland ahead 7-4.

“Tito made the right decision to take me out before it got worse,” Carrasco said.

“He wasn’t letting it go, and it made me start to worry a little bit,” Francona said. “We’ll certainly look at him more tomorrow.

We’ll have a much better read.”

Boone Logan (1-0), who entered in the fifth, retired both batters he faced. Andrew Miller allowed his first run of the season in the eighth, and Cody Allen gave up a solo homer to Peter Bourjos in the ninth before recording his 10th save.

Lonnie Chisenhall hit a three-run homer when Cleveland scored five times in the first off Chris Archer (3-2). Francisco Lindor added a solo homer in the

eighth.

Carrasco was charged with five runs and threw 75 pitches. He was sidelined in spring training with a sore elbow and didn’t pitch in last season’s playoffs because of a broken right hand after being hit by a line drive in September.

Archer allowed seven runs in five innings. He gave up five hits, walked six, struck out six and threw 101 pitches. Archer is 0-6 lifetime against Cleveland, the only AL team he hasn’t defeated.

“I wish I could have given our team more,” he said.

“The biggest letdown is us putting up seven runs and not winning. Walking six people is unacceptable.”

Edwin Encarnacion had an RBI grounder in the first. The slugger, dropped out of the cleanup spot for the first time this season, went 0 for 5 and is now batting .198.

Encarnacion is stuck in

He hit 42 homers and drove in 127 runs for Toronto last season before signing a $60 million, three-year contract with Cleveland.

Abraham Almonte started the Indians’ second with a triple and scored on a throwing error by catcher Derek Norris. Yan Gomes had an RBI double in the third.

Almonte was removed in the fifth with a sore right shoulder, an injury that occurred during an at-bat last week, and will be placed on the disabled list.

Kevin Kiermaier homered for the Rays.

WELCOME BACK Francona and Rays manager Kevin Cash have been friends for years. Cash played in Boston while

Francona managed the Red Sox and was on Cleveland’s coaching staff from 201314.

“I should have just put the hat in my back pocket,” he said. “I was just trying to get above them, and when I did, when I went to squeeze the ball I got the hat, too.”

NICE GRAB Logan Morrison leaned into the first base stands in the seventh for Encarnacion’s foul ball. Not only did he make the catch, he also ended up with an Indians’ cap that a fan tossed toward the ball in his glove. Morrison threw the cap into the

GURRIEL’S GRAND SLAM IN 6TH HELPS ASTROS BEAT MARLINS 7-2

By STEVEN WINE AP Sports Writer MIAMI (AP) — Short on sleep, the Houston Astros were listless and hitless until the fifth inning. Then their lumber stirred from its slumber.

Yuli Gurriel hit a grand slam and Jose Altuve homered and drove in three runs as Houston overcame a slow start to beat the Miami Marlins 7-2 Monday night.

The Astros arrived at their hotel at 5 a.m. after a doubleheader in New York against the Yankees, and Dan Straily shut them out for five innings.

“Sometimes it takes a little while to get untracked,” Houston manager A.J. Hinch said. “Credit to the pitcher when he does that against an offense like this.”

Straily left the game after a comebacker bruised his right arm, and the Astros’ bats soon came to life.

Josh Reddick doubled in the sixth off Junichi Tazawa (1-1), and after a walk and a hit batter loaded the bases, Gurriel pulled a 94 mph fastball over the fence with two outs for a 4-1 lead.

The Astros’ second grand slam of the year was also their second in two games.

Alex Bregman hit one in Sunday night’s win at Yankee Stadium.

It’s the first time Houston has ever had slams in consecutive games.

Altuve shook off a fastball to the hand in the first inning and homered into the Marlins Park home run sculpture in the ninth.

“It was a long day Sunday,” Altuve said. “But we got some rest and did what we’ve been doing — playing really good ball.”

Joe Musgrove (3-3) allowed one run in 5 2/3 innings for the Astros (2712), who climbed 15 games above .500 for the first time since 2005. They have the best record in the majors and are off to the best start in franchise history.

Houston began the game leading the American League in hits and batting average but managed only one hit in five innings against Straily.

The right-hander left the game as a precaution after he was hit near his pitching elbow by a line drive off Evan Gattis’ bat to start the fifth. A bruise just below the elbow was visible almost immediately, but after consulting with a trainer and manager Don Mattingly, Straily finished the inning.

Straily said he expects to make his next start despite the bruise.

“The ball caught me right on a muscle on my foreman,” he said. “I’m very fortunate that it wasn’t at my face or hitting any bones in my arm. I got pretty lucky in that regard. Hopefully it’s just a sore muscle in my arm.”

Altuve was hit on the left hand by a 92 mph fastball from Straily but stayed in the game and contributed a two-run single in the seventh, then hit his sixth homer in the ninth.

“In the moment I felt it a little, but then it went

away,” Altuve said. “I was able to swing the bat, so I feel good, especially because we won.”

The Astros’ George Springer went 0 for 5, ending his 13-game hitting streak.

Justin Bour homered and had three hits for the Marlins. They outhit the Astros 12-8 but went 1 for 10 with runners in scoring position and fell to 1-6 on their homestand.

BULLPEN WOES Three Miami relievers combined to allow seven runs in four innings.

Tazawa’s ERA rose to 6.60, and he has allowed four homers in 16 innings.

“I don’t want to make excuses,” he said. “I’ll continue to work hard and hope I can help this team.”

BAD BASERUNNING The Marlins had two runners thrown out on the bases in the third. J.T. Riddle was out trying to stretch a single when left fielder Norichika Aoki made a strong throw to second. Dee Gordon singled with two outs and was picked off.

DROUGHT Straily has allowed only 24 hits in 43 innings this year, but is winless since April 11 and 1-3 overall.

UP NEXT Houston LHP Dallas Keuchel (6-0, 1.69 ERA) tries to become the first seven-game winner in the majors when he starts Tuesday night against RHP Tom Koehler (1-1, 5.60).

Terry makes scoring return to lineup for champion Chelsea LONDON (AP) — John Terry scored for a 17th successive English Premier League season as newly crowned champion Chelsea beat Watford 4-3 courtesy of Cesc Fabregas’ late strike yesterday.

Chelsea celebrated a 14th victory in 15 home games amid blue and silver streamers on its return to Stamford Bridge after sealing the title.

Terry made his 716th Chelsea appearance and likely his penultimate one at Stamford Bridge, scoring his 67th goal.

The 36-year-old defender will leave Chelsea this summer after 22 years, and will also be expected to play on Sunday when he will lift the trophy for the fifth time.

There was an element of good fortune about Terry’s goal on his first league start since September. As the ball dropped kindly for Terry in the penalty area, the defender struck it with his shin and it went in off the post in the 22nd minute.

Two minutes later, Terry gifted Watford a rare away goal scored by Etienne Capoue, but Cesar Azpilicueta’s crisp drive restored Chelsea’s lead.

Michy Batshuayi, who scored the

PAKISTAN WINS FIRST TEST SERIES IN WEST INDIES AFTER ALMOST 60 YEARS PAKISTAN have won a first Test series in the West Indies after almost 60 years after a 101-run win in Dominica yesterday.

With the series tied at 1-1, the hosts were set 304 to win in Roseau in the third Test and despite an unbeaten centruy from Roston Chase they were all out for 202, Yasir Shah taking five for 92. He claimed the final wicket with the last ball of the penultimate over.

It was Pakistan’s eighth Test series in the Caribbean - they first played there in 1958 - and marked the end of skipper Misbah-ul-Haq and record runscorer Younus Khan’s Test careers.

Younus, 39, became the first Pakistan batsman to reach 10,000 Test runs in the opening match of the series and played 118 Tests.

Misbah, 42, played 75 Tests - a record 56 as captain with 26 wins, another Pakistan record.

After 14 wickets had fallen on the penultimate day, West Indies struggled to

And Watford substitute Stefano Okaka equalised after holding off Terry before Fabregas’ decisive 88thminute strike.

Sebastian Prodl was sent off for a second bookable offence in the second minute of stoppage time as Watford finished the contest with 10 men in a bad-tempered conclusion.

Watford is already sure off its Premier League status heading into Sunday’s final game against Liverpool.

93 for six in the 44th over.

However, they were given hope when Jason Holder joined Chase at the crease and the pair lifted their side to 151, when the captain fell to Hasan Ali in the 62nd over.

Chase, playing his 10th Test, recorded his third century with a boundary but then lost last man Shannon Gabriel, who edged on to his stumps when inexplicably attempting a slog to the boundary, to give spinner Yasir his 149th Test wicket and an 11th five-wicket haul in only his 26th match.

Pakistan won the first Test in Jamaica by seven wickets but the tables were turned in Barbados when the West Indies triumphed by 106 runs.

By KYLE HIGHTOWER AP Sports Writer BOSTON (AP) — Isaiah Thomas scored 29 points and had 12 assists, Kelly Olynyk scored a careerplayoff high 26 points and the Boston Celtics used a big fourth quarter to outlast the Washington Wizards 115-105 in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference semi-finals last night.

Boston advances to the Eastern Conference finals, where it will host the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 1 on Wednesday.

Led by Olynyk the Celtics got a huge lift from their bench, outscoring their Wizards’ counterparts 485.

Boston also connected on 11 3-pointers, including 8 of 13 in the second half.

Bradley Beal led the Wizards, which was playing it its first Game 7 since 1979 with 38 points, including 24 in the second half.

Otto Porter added 20 points. John Wall and Markieff Morris each finished with 18. But Washington also had 15 turnovers, leading to 17 Celtics’ points.

Boston trailed 76-72 late in the third quarter before ending the period on a 13-3 spurt. The run grew to 22-5 in the opening minutes of the fourth as the Celtics’ lead became 94-81.

But Washington quickly responded, scoring seven straight in just 51 seconds to get back within six.

Washington stayed close as Beal continued to score, including a four-point play.

But Olynyk then took over.

He scored 11 of 13 points for Boston as the Celtics stretched their advantage to 110-100.

Both teams were a little tight in the early going with neither team scoring a field goal in the first two minutes of action.

The Celtics had the largest lead of the first half at 10-2, but that gap was quickly erased by Washington as Boston started to rack up fouls.

Marcus Smart, Amir Johnson and Olynyk all were whistled for three fouls in the opening 24 minutes, though Smart did inject some life into a second unit that outscored their Wizards’ counterparts 19-5.

SPURS’ KAWHI LEONARD RULED OUT FOR GAME 2 VS WARRIORS

By JOSH DUBOW AP Sports Writer SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Spurs coach Gregg Popovich has ruled Kawhi Leonard out for Game 2 of the Western Conference finals with a sprained left ankle caused by what Popovich described as a “dangerous” and “unsportsmanlike” closeout by Golden State’s Zaza Pachulia.

Leonard had an MRI yesterday and Popovich had no timetable on when he’d be able to return to action.

“We’ll see what the MRI says, but obviously he won’t play tomorrow,” Popovich said.

Leonard left Game 1 on Sunday after re-injuring his tender left ankle in the third quarter when Pachulia’s foot slid under Leonard’s following a jumper by the All-Star forward.

The play happened in front of the Spurs bench and Popovich was angry at the time and even more upset a day after San Antonio’s 113-111 loss to the Warriors.

“A two-step, lead-with-your-foot closeout is not appropriate,” he said.

“It’s dangerous, it’s unsportsmanlike.

It’s just not what anybody does to anybody else.

“And this particular individual has a history with that kind of action.”
