COLLEGE BASKETBALL
Oklahoma top scorer Warrensidelined with mononucleosis
Oklahoma guard Willie Warren is out indefinitely after being diagnosed with mononucleosis.
Warren, the Sooners’ leading scorer with a 16.2-point average, did not travel with the team for Saturday’s 97-76 loss at Oklahoma State.
Coach Jeff Capel said he doesn’t know how long Warren will be out because “it varies for each guy.” The viral illness can linger for weeks and even months in some individuals.
Warren received votes for The Associated Press’ preseason All-America team and had been considered a potential NBA Draft prospect last year before returning for his sophomore season at Oklahoma.
He ranks 10th in the Big 12 in scoring.
Also: Oklahoma State point guard Ray Penn will miss the rest of the season to allow a stress reaction in his right knee to heal.
Penn had missed four straight games before he came back and played 24 minutes in a loss to Texas Tech last weekend. But he was on crutches again for the Cowboys’ 97-76 win over Oklahoma on Saturday.
The freshman started 15 of Oklahoma State’s first 18 games this season and was averaging 7.8 points and three assists.
Philadelphia University men’s coach Herb Magee won his 900th career game when the host Rams beat Bloomfield College, 81-77. Now the Division II coach is just three victories away from passing Bobby Knight for first place on the NCAA career wins list.
Knight’s 902 victories are the most for coaches who spent their entire careers at the NCAA level.

Rays beat Upton in arbitration;outfielder still gets big raise
Tampa Bay defeated outfielder B.J. Upton during salary arbitration, leaving the Rays 5-0 in cases that have gone to hearings.
Eligible for arbitration for the first time, Upton got a raise from $435,000 to $3 million this year rather than his request for $3.3 million. Arbitrators Gil Vernon, Elizabeth Neumeier and Elliott Shriftman issued the decision, a day after hearing arguments.
Upton hit .251 with 11 homers, 55 RBIs and 42 steals last season, a slight decrease from the previous year, when he batted .273 with nine homers, 67 RBIs and 44 stolen bases.
Also: Top-seeded Andy Roddick reached the championship match of the SAP Open, beating No. 7 Sam Querrey, 2-6, 7-6 (5), 7-6 (4) in the semifinals at San Jose, Calif.
Roddick will face second-seeded Fernando Verdasco, who reached his first final since October by Denis Istomin of Uzbekistan, 6-3, 2-6, 6-4.
The Wranglers shut out the Bakersfield Condors 4-0 in an ECHL game at Bakersfield, Calif. Goalie Jimmy Spratt stopped 31 shots for Las Vegas (21-23-5), and Greg Collins, Ned Lukacevic, Jerry Pollastone and Adam Miller scored for the Wranglers.
A toxicology report showed NFL defensive end Gaines Adams had marijuana and alcohol in his system when he died. But Greenwood County, S.C., coroner Jim Coursey said nothing found in the report contributed to Adams’ death.
The report showed Adams, who played for the Bears and Buccaneers, had a blood-alcohol level of 0.021 percent. That’s well below the 0.08 percent at which South Carolina drivers are considered intoxicated.
The 26-year-old former Clemson standout died Jan. 17. An autopsy showed the cause of death to be a heart attack caused by an enlarged heart.
