Third time's a charm for Syracuse

The Syracuse Orangemen played in their third Great Alaska Shootout. This time they won. "In my opinion there are three premier preseason tournaments: the Maui Invitational, the Great Alaska Shootout and the Preseason NIT," Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim said before the start of the 23rd annual Thanksgiving weekend tournament. "We've won the other two, and we're real proud to win this." Above, Kueth Duany stole the ball from Wesley Stokes of Missouri. That move and Duany's five straight second-half points helped Syracuse put Missouri away 84-62. (Photo by Marc Lester)
