Louisville, KY (SportsNetwork.com) - Chris Jones scored 22 points and helped key a huge Louisville run to begin the second half that lifted the fifth- ranked Cardinals to a hard-earned 58-52 victory over Clemson. Louisville (14-1, 2-0 ACC) was down 22-18 at halftime after shooting a woeful 22.2 percent over the first 20 minutes, but went on a 17-0 tear following the intermission and never trailed again in its first conference home game as an ACC member. Terry Rozier netted six of his 15 points during the pivotal spurt, while Jones had all but two of his points in the second half. Wayne Blackshear added 11 points for Louisville, but finished 3-of-13 from the floor. The Cardinals shot just 32.7 percent for the game, but held Clemson to a 30.8 percent success rate in a defensive slugfest. No games going to be easy. Everybodys going to play you tough, Rozier said. Clemson (8-6, 0-2), coming off a 24-point home loss to No. 18 North Carolina on Saturday, was led by Jaron Blossomgames 15 points. Damarcus Harrison finished with 12 in defeat. After recording a mere six field goals in 27 attempts prior to the break, the Cardinals matched that number in less than 4 1/2 minutes during their game- changing sequence. Blackshear got it started with a 3-pointer on Louisvilles initial possession and Rozier sank a go-ahead layup in transition on the Cardinals next trip down the court. Montrezl Harrell followed with a thunderous putback dunk, and another Rozier layup preceded Jones triple that staked Louisville to a 30-22 lead just 3:36 into the period. The message I tried to get to the team at halftime was, Guys, the (2013) championship team understood styles, and you dont, Louisville head coach Rick Pitino said. We didnt understand it was going to be a dog fight. Our guys have to understand the ACC and what its all about. Harrell threw down another jam to cap the run and put the Cardinals up by a 35-22 count with 13:27 left to play. By the time we got our legs back under us, we were in trouble, said Clemson head coach Brad Brownell. Theres so much (pressure by Louisvilles defense), so much random trapping that it forces your guys to make plays. Clemson did finally regroup, with Harrison and Blossomgame knocking down consecutive treys to ignite a 9-0 push that cut the margin to four. Jones answered with back-to-back 3-pointers, but the Tigers countered with an 8-0 stretch to pull within 42-40 with six minutes to go. Louisville then turned it up a notch on the defensive end, as Clemson didnt make another basket until Donte Granthams layup with 41 seconds left. The Cardinals outscored the Tigers 9-2 in between, while sealing the outcome by hitting 10-of-12 foul shots in the final minute. After going 50 percent or better from the field in wins over Long Beach State and Wake Forest that preceded Wednesdays test, Louisville misfired on 11 of its first 15 attempts in this one. The Cardinals problems were compounded with Harrell, the teams second- leading scorer, on the bench for most of the first half after picking up two quick fouls on a night he was held to a season-low six points. Louisville was still able to keep it close behind its defense. However, the Tigers ended the frame on an 8-2 run, which Blossomgame and Harrison started with consecutive 3-pointers, to enter the break owning a slim 22-18 edge.

As the 2016/17 season draws closer, Sky Sports investigate the cutting-edge technology being used by Premier League clubs... Pre-season is a crucial period as clubs prepare for the new campaign, but how do they make sure their players are in peak physical condition for the gruelling months ahead?Pep Guardiola has banned pizza and fruit juice at Manchester City while Antonio Conte is reportedly pushing his players to new extremes at Chelsea, but for many of the biggest sides at home and abroad, cutting-edge technology from STATSports is at the heart of preparations. The Northern Ireland-based company, founded in 2007, have become a pioneering influence in the sports science industry, and their player tracking and analysis equipment is used by 14 Premier League clubs, a host of international teams and European giants such as Barcelona and Juventus. Barcelonas Lionel Messi wore a Viper pod in the opening weeks of last season The key component of the system is the Viper pod, a matchbox-sized GPS device which sits between the shoulder blades, where it monitors heart rate and measures various aspects of physiological performance. The black vests which hold them in place have become a common sight on training grounds up and down the country, and the pods can be worn during matches, too.Lionel Messi was seen wearing a Viper pod in the opening games of last season as Barcelona carefully eased him back into domestic action after an arduous summer at the Copa America, and the technologys popularity has risen sharply in recent years. Richard Byrne, the head of business development at STATSports, explains how it works. Arsenal were one of the first Premier League sides to sign up for STATSports Its function is to collect all of a players performance data, Byrne tells Sky Sports. That means basic things like distance covered and running speed, but also more in-depth metrics we have developed such as step balance and stress loads, really intricate details on performance, fitness and well-being. Premier League clubs using STATSports Arsenal Bournemouth Burnley Crystal Palace Everton Liverpool Manchester City Manchester United Southampton Stoke Sunderland Swansea Tottenham West Ham The pods collect vast quantities of data which is picked up by an antennae at the side of the pitch and processed by STATSports software. Coaching staff then use the live stats to monitor performance, allowing them to compile reports and make informed decisions on what players should and shouldnt be doing on the pitch. Technical staff at Greek side Olympiakos monitor STATSport data during training Sunderland are one of the Premier League clubs using the equipment. We use it every day, in every session, and weve used it in every pre-season game so far this summer, their first team sports scientist Paul Walsh tells Sky Sports. Its quite an integral part of the whole backroom teams work.The GPS gear has just become part of the players kit for training now, adds Walsh. Theyve got their boots, shorts, socks, and their GPS vests and heart rate monitors.dddddddddddd Its just become a staple throughout much of the Premier League. You see players with the vests on all over the place.The technology allows clubs like Sunderland to tailor their players workloads individually and fine-tune their training through the week. Every day well have a different flavour to it, explains Walsh. The further away you are from a game, the more work will go in on the training field. So as you get closer to the game, the workload will taper off so the players are fresh. Sunderlands Lee Cattermole and Liam Bridcutt pictured wearing STATSport vests As well as heart rate and distance covered, Sunderland use the equipment to monitor metrics such as high speed running, acceleration and deceleration. Their former manager Sam Allardyce is known for his keen interest in sports science, and Walsh says the newly-appointed David Moyes has already expressed similar enthusiasm.Its very quick and easy to use, he says. Within 15 minutes of training weve got a report upstairs to the coaching staff and the medical team. So everyone will have an idea how hard each session was for each player. That will then support decisions that are being made throughout the week. Peps pre-season impact We take a look at the changes Pep Guardiola has made to Manchester Citys pre-season. The technology is also used to assess whether players are at risk of exasperating a fitness issue. Running with more weight on one foot than the other, for example, can be a sign that a player is subconsciously compensating for an injury. We look out for abnormalities or sudden spikes in the data, says Walsh. That might be a little red flag to raise a conversation with a player or the medical team.The idea is to prevent soft-tissue injuries, and Byrne reveals that one of STATSports major European clients cut their total of such injuries from 44 to just 22 in the year they started using the equipment. Keeping your players on the pitch is obviously the key to winning at the top level, so that was great to hear, he says. Jurgen Klopp oversees Liverpool players wearing Viper pods For the players, it all adds up to constant scrutiny. Theres certainly no hiding place in football anymore, because everything is analysed so much, says Walsh, who adds that the Sunderland squad have embraced the technology wholeheartedly.They have really bought into it, he says. One of the things we provide is maximum speeds from each session, and some of the really quick players love to see who got the quickest speed. They are all really interested in what they do. It does make your life easier when you have that buy-in from the players. We use it to push them on.
