Phoenix Suns defense keys recent surge

As much as Suns coach Alvin Gentry has implored his team to run more with the ball, winning the past two games with a total of 170 points for the first time since November 2002 just might say more about who this season’s Suns are as they hit the quarter pole in Dallas Monday night.

Dean Wilson Takes a Win in Phoenix!

Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki riders Dean Wilson and Tyla Rattray started the night strong, finishing first and second, respectively, in their heat race. “It’s nice to get a win and a good start to the night,” Wilson said, “I wheelied halfway up the straight, but it’s all good. I’m excited for the Main.”

Teammate Broc Tickle, on the other hand, had a tough night in the Supercross Class. An early crash in his heat sent him to the Last Chance Qualifier, where he ended the race just shy of a qualifying position. “I struggled all night with feeling comfortable,” said Tickle. “This week I’m really working on starts and am looking to rebound in LA.

Unfortunately Herbert is yet to come up with any answers as the fourth-placed Phoenix are yet to taste success on Australian soil in six attempts this season.

Police probe possible link between Arizona deaths

Arizona authorities hope to get ballistic results back Monday to determine if a deputy sheriff fatally shot while answering a burglary call and a New Hampshire couple found dead in their car were killed by the same gunman.

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio said investigators are examining a possible link between the shootings because similar guns are believed to have been used in both cases. “Because of the type of weapon used up in Sedona, he could be the guy,” Arpaio said.
