0 - Times a Bill Belichick-coached team had lost when leading by at least 13 points in the fourth quarter before Sunday night's 35-34 defeat at the hands of the Indianapolis Colts. Down 31-14 in the fourth quarter, Peyton Manning threw two touchdown passes and running back Joseph Addai had a score of his own to bring the Colts to 9-0. Belichick gambled on 4th-and-2 on his own 28-yard line late in the final period, ultimately turning it over on downs and leading to Manning's game-winner to wideout Reggie Wayne.
7 - Goals that the Tufts field hockey team outscored its opponents by in the Jumbos' two NCAA Tournament games this past weekend. Tufts dispatched MIT on Saturday afternoon 5-1, thanks largely in part to a hat trick by senior Michelle Kelly. The Jumbos then earned a trip to the NCAA semifinals in South Hadley, Mass. with their resounding 4-1 win over Skidmore on Sunday, highlighted by a pair of goals by junior Jess Perkins.
55 - Points scored by Milwaukee Bucks point guard Brandon Jennings on Saturday versus the Golden State Warriors, the fifth-most all time by a rookie. Jennings poured in 29 points in the third quarter after being blanked in the first period, helping the Bucks to a 129-125 win at home. Jennings' output was two points away from tying the franchise scoring record set by Michael Redd three years ago and was only three points off the rookie record held by Wilt Chamberlain.
1 - Number of times, in nine sets, that the Tufts volleyball team let up more than 20 points in its three New England Regional matches. The Jumbos easily bested Maine Maritime on Thursday night 3-0 and beat Wellesley and Williams on Friday and Saturday by identical scores. Though Wellesley fell in each of the first two sets 25-20, the Ephs were the first team to get above the 20-point mark, keeping the last set close on Saturday before falling 25-23.
22 - Ranking in the latest Associated Press college football poll given to the University of Southern California, the team's lowest such mark since the start of the 2002 season. In fact, the Trojans haven't been ranked lower than No. 13 since Oct. 2002, but fell 11 spots after being embarrassed 55-21 by Stanford. USC has been ranked in 128 consecutive media polls in the past seven seasons, but never this low.
4 - Members of the men's cross country team's top seven who earned All-Region honors on Saturday at the New England Regional Championships. Senior Jesse Faller led the Jumbos with a fourth-place finish and will head to nationals in Cleveland, Ohio. But freshman Kyle Marks, who finished 23rd, and juniors Jeff Ragazzini and Chris Brunnquell, who placed in 29th and 35th, respectively, also had their best races of the season to join Faller on the All-Region team.
