At 6 feet and 260 pounds, he appears better suited for his position on other side of the ball: defensive end, where he focused much of his energy in the season’s first three games.But a change in offensive strategy put Prather in a better position to succeed on both sides of the ball this past Friday. And he took full advantage. Prather rushed eight times for 127 yards and four touchdowns on offense and made four tackles for loss with two sacks on defense as the Wolverines ended one of the region’s longest losing streaks, beating Wheaton 27-13, for the first win...Capuozzo, Garbisi and Allan shifted by Italy again for All Blacks match at Rugby World Cup

LYON, France (AP) — Key Italy backs Tommaso Allan, Paolo Garbisi and Ange Capuozzo were rearranged again for the Rugby World Cup match against New Zealand on Friday.The game is a must-win for both in the race for a quarterfinal berth from Pool A. Italy has never beaten the All Blacks.Allan, Garbisi and Capuozzo were at 10, 12 and 15 — their club or natural positions — against Uruguay last week.But coach Kieran Crowley on Wednesday put Allan back at fullback, Capuozzo on the wing, and Garbisi at flyhalf.Lock Dino Lamb, scrumhalf Stephen Varney and inside center Luca Morisi were also back as starters after Uruguay was overcome 38-17 from 17-7 down at halftime last week.The changes mean Italy was restored almost to the side which won its opening match against Namibia 52-8. The only difference was Saracen’s Marco Riccioni at tighthead prop instead of Benetton’s Simone Ferrari, who was in the reserves.The bench was also freshened with the introduction of Hame Faiva, props Iva...Los sindicatos culinarios y de camareros de Las Vegas votan a favor de autorizar una huelga
