Hawaii QB Brennan cleared to play at UNR

After sitting out two days of practice following a concussion, Colt Brennan returned to the field Wednesday, with Hawaii coach June Jones saying the quarterback has been cleared to play Friday at UNR.

Doctors and trainers have determined Brennan is fine following the injury Saturday in a 37-30 victory over Fresno State, Jones said.

Brennan needs just one more touchdown pass to reach 122 and break the NCAA career record set by Brigham Young's Ty Detmer in 1991.

Also: Florida receiver Percy Harvin missed his fifth consecutive practice and likely won't play against Florida Atlantic.

Coach Urban Meyer said Harvin is fighting a sinus infection and migraine headaches. Harvin is the Gators' leading receiver and third-leading rusher.

Defensive end Craig Mester recovered a fumble in the fourth quarter and ran 7 yards for a touchdown to give Miami of Ohio a 7-0 win over Akron in Oxford, Ohio.

Kentucky guard Meeks out at least one month

Kentucky will be without its top outside shooter for at least a month after guard Jodie Meeks was diagnosed with a stress fracture.

Meeks suffered the injury to his pelvic area when he fell to the ground during an exhibition game against Seattle. He started but was ineffective in two regular-season games after that.

Coach Billy Gillispie said Meeks is expected to miss four to six weeks.

Also: Junior guard Billy Humphrey has been indefinitely suspended from the Georgia basketball team following his arrest for possession of a weapon on school property.

Humphrey's lawyer, Kim Stephens, said he would file a motion as early as today to have the charge dismissed. Stephens said the charge stemmed from "what amounts to a little butterfly knife in a winter coat in a closet."

Federer, Roddick win, to meet in Masters Cup

Top-ranked Roger Federer snapped his two-match losing streak, beating No. 4 Nikolay Davydenko 6-4, 6-3 and boosting his chances of defending his Masters Cup title in Shanghai, China.

Federer still has to beat No. 5 Andy Roddick on Friday, though, to have a serious chance of making the semifinals in the season-ending tournament that features the top eight men's singles players.

Roddick beat No. 7 Fernando Gonzalez 6-1, 6-4 to improve to 2-0 in round-robin play.

Both Roddick and Gonzalez won their opening matches, with the Chilean upsetting Federer. It was Federer's second consecutive loss, the first time he had lost twice in a row in 41/2 years.

Also: Former major league pitcher Rick Rhoden had a hole-in-one to take a two-stroke lead after the second round of the Champions Tour's National Qualifying Tournament in Coral Springs, Fla.

Rhoden aced the 186-yard, 17th hole with a 5-iron and finished with a 2-under 70 for a 6-under 138 total at TPC Eagle Trace.

Patrick Valenzuela is set to ride again in Southern California for the first time in nearly a year Saturday at Hollywood Park.

The 45-year-old jockey hasn't ridden in Southern California since Nov. 26, 2006, when he broke his ribs after being kicked by his mount at Hollywood Park.

Robert Taylor, a sprinter who won gold and silver medals at the 1972 Munich Olympics, has died. He was 59.
