GARMISCH-PARTENKIRCHEN, Germany -- A career milestone and a rare family reunion. Uk Nike Air Max 90 Jacquard . All of which left Lindsey Vonn in tears, and it made for a perfect day. Vonn captured her 50th World Cup victory Saturday, winning the downhill on the demanding Kandahar course with temperatures plunging to -- 26 C. "Its crazy. I am at a loss for words. I already cried with one of the TV crews and that is enough crying for the day," Vonn said. "Fifty World Cup wins is a huge mark for me in my career and more than I even thought possible. I just wanted the 50th win." Few skiers reach the 50-win landmark. Among the women, only Annemarie Moser-Proell of Austria (62) and Vreni Schneider of Switzerland (55) are ahead of Vonn. Only three men have 50 or more: Ingemar Stenmark of Sweden (86), Hermann Maier of Austria (54) and Alberto Tomba of Italy (50). At 27, Vonn is older than Moser-Proell was when she broke the mark, but younger than Schneider. "My goal is always only to win the next race," Vonn said later, answering questions in her nearly flawless German. At the rate Vonn is going, Schneiders mark is unlikely to last long. Vonn already has nine wins this season. Vonns first win was in March 2006 in Norway. Vonn won in one minute 44.86 seconds. Nadja Kamer of Switzerland was 0.41 seconds behind and Tina Weirather of Liechtenstein finished third, 0.79 back. Vonn was 0.62 seconds behind at the second split and nearly crashed midway down the icy and bumpy course before regaining her balance to win by nearly half a second. "That wasnt part of the plan," she said. "I hit a bump and lost the inside edge of my ski and went onto my hip. From that point until the finish I skied well and was able to make up some time." Vonn celebrated a triumphant return to this southern German resort, where she had a tough time last year at the world championships. Coming off a concussion, the dominant skier of her generation won only a silver medal in the downhill. "I have raced in a lot of places and always something good or bad happens no matter what you do," she said. "Last year wasnt the best time here in Garmisch, but I turned everything around this year and its awesome to get the 50th in Garmisch. "My sisters here, my dad is here. Things happen for a reason and I didnt win last weekend because I needed my family here to help me celebrate." After separating from her husband and coach Thomas Vonn before the start of the season, Vonn has also started the process of repairing the relationship with her father, Alan Kildow, who introduced her to skiing and even moved the family from Minnesota to Colorado to hone her talent. They had a falling out a few years ago, the tension stemming in part from Vonns relationship with Thomas. Last weekend, Vonn missed out on her 50th win, edged by 0.03 seconds by German friend and rival Maria Hoefl-Riesch in St. Moritz, Switzerland. A week later on Hoefl-Rieschs home slope, Vonn was not to be denied. Vonn told reporters in German she was particularly happy to reach the 50th win -- "records mean everything to me" -- in Garmisch, where she spends Christmas holidays with Hoefl-Riesch and her family. "Lindsey was sensational in the bottom part," said Hoefl-Riesch, who finished fourth and missed the podium by two-tenths of a second. Vonn lauded Kamer for her good run. "She was really fast at the top of the course," Vonn said. "I am not sure how she did it, she may have had some rockets on her skis or something. She skied really well and I knew she would be hard to beat." Vonn leads the overall World Cup standings by 482 points and the downhill standings by 230 points, with 100 points for a win. She is on course to reclaim the overall title from Hoefl-Riesch. "I am just so happy, every win is special, but 50 is a huge mark," Vonn said. "I feel like today will be a day when I look back at my career and see what I have achieved. I have a lot more to do. I have a lot more years of skiing in me, but Alberto Tomba has 50 ski wins and he is one of the best skiers of all time. I dont see myself in that way, but to know that I have accomplished so much to this point is amazing." A super-G is scheduled for Sunday. Nike Air Max 90 Jacquard Sale .

The Wildcats are 10-0 for the first time since the 2005-06 season, and three shy of matching the program-best 13-0 start in 1937-38. The Wildcats have now thumped city rivals Penn, Saint Josephs and the Explorers (5-5) by at least 20 points in each game. Coach Jay Wrights team isnt in the top 10 because of victories against the city lightweights, but because of wins over Top 25 teams Kansas and Iowa. The Wildcats opened the second on a 15-5 run that helped them build a comfortable lead. They shot well over 50 per cent for most of the half to beat La Salle for the 11th time in the last 12 games. La Salles Jerrell Wright scored 18 of his 20 points in the first half. The Explorers snapped a 10-game series losing streak to Villanova last season on their way toward a surprising run in the Sweet Sixteen.

They committed six turnovers on the first eight possessions and had 10 in the half at the 7:13 mark, well above their 9.9 per game average. La Salle may have been the best team in Philly hoops this season. A year after a surprising trip to the NCAA tournament, the Wildcats have clearly wrested that title again. They did it without much production from their two leading scorers. Pinkston (17.8 points) scored only seven and Bell (17.6) had just three. Hilliard bettered his 13.8 average and Hart only averaged eight. Hilliard put up his numbers on 6 of 11 shooting from the floor and 8 of 9 from the free-throw line. Cheap Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys China Wholesale Jerseys ' ' '
