EL PASO, Texas -- Danny Manning is taking Tulsa back to the NCAA tournament. Jarrad Davis Jersey . James Woodard scored 27 points to lead the Golden Hurricane to its first NCAA berth since 2003 with a 69-60 victory Saturday against Louisiana Tech in the Conference USA tournament final. "Its an indescribable feeling," said Woodard, who is from Tulsa. "Growing up as a kid, you cant wait for March Madness. To be a part of that, this time around, and for us being so young as a team, its definitely a dream come true." Woodard, who scored 18 points in the second half, made 7 of 8 free throws down the stretch to help Tulsa hold off the Bulldogs. Tulsa (21-12), which was the No. 2 seed, will carry an 11-game win streak into the tournament. Top-seeded Louisiana Tech came up short, extending an NCAA tournament drought dating to 1991. The Bulldogs (27-7) were led by Kenneth Smith with 16 points and Kenyon McNeail with 15. Alex Hamilton finished with 12. The Bulldogs led 35-34 at the half in a game with 16 lead changes. Neither team led by more than five points until Tulsa took control in the final 5 minutes, pushing the advantage to 10 points on a free throw by Woodard with 1:12 left. "This was a lot of fun," said Tulsa second-year head coach Danny Manning, who won an NCAA title playing for Kansas in 1988. "It was a hard-fought game. Louisiana Tech is a talented team. We have three other teams in our league deserving of a bid." Louisiana Tech, which made 7 of 10 3-pointers in the first half and shot 45 per cent from the field, cooled off in the second half. The Bulldogs, limited by a stingy Tulsa defence, shot 32 per cent for the game. They went just 4 of 15 from 3-point range in the second half and 15 of 23 from the free-throw line. "Right now, I feel bad for the four seniors," Techs Alex Hamilton said. "I just wish there was more could do. We came out on the short end. I feel bad for the guys." Meanwhile, Tulsa shot 72 per cent from the line (18 of 25), 55 per cent from 3-point range (5 of 9) and 43 per cent from the field. Nevin Lawson Jersey . After losing Brett Cecil to groin tightness on Friday, the Blue Jays watched as R. Teez Tabor Jersey . Dumont, a fifth round draft pick of the Canadiens in 2009, has four assists and 20 penalty minutes in 12 games with the Bulldogs this season. The 23-year-old split last season between Hamilton and Montreal, recording 16 goals and 15 assists in 55 regular season games with the Bulldogs.Clint Dempsey scored his 50th international goal to set the United States on their way to a 4-0 win over Costa Rica in Copa America Group A. The US went down to a 2-0 defeat to Colombia in their opening game but rebounded in style at Soldier Field in Chicago on Tuesday as Jermaine Jones, Bobby Wood and Graham Zusi were also on target.Costa Rica should have gone ahead in the sixth minute when a poor clearance from DeAndre Yedlin dropped to Joel Campbell but he hooked his effort wide of the post. And they were made to pay three minutes later when the US went ahead after a push on Wood from Cristian Gamboa and referee Roddy Zambrano immediately pointed to the spot. Dempsey kept his cool to confidently slot home and become the second American to score a half century of international goals. Clint Dempsey scores his 50th USA goal Gyasi Zardes blasted an eeffort high and wide before the US doubled their advantage in the 37th minute. Quandre Diggs Jersey. Dempsey did brilliantly to hold the ball up waiting for support to arrive and when it did in the shape of Jones, the midfielder fired home from 20 yards after a neat lay-off.It got even better for the host nation four minutes late when Wood made it three after a superb ball from Michael Bradley picked him out and he turned a defender before firing low past Patrick Pemberton.The States then put the icing on the cake four minutes from time when sloppy play from the Costa Rican defence gifted the ball to Chris Wondolowski, and Zusi ran in on goal to beat Pemberton for a fourth time.Jurgen Klinsmanns side move up to second in Group A behind Colombia, who beat Paraguay 2-1 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. In the final group games on Saturday, the USA meet Paraguay in Philadelphia and Colombia take on Costa Rica in Houston.The tournament continues on Wednesday with games in Group B - Brazil meet Haiti in Orlando and Ecuador face Peru in Glendale, Arizona.Watch the Copa America live on Premier Sports Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping Wholesale Authentic Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys 2018 Wholesale Jerseys From China NFL Jerseys Cheap ' ' '
