Carlton skipper Marc Murphy is keen for Bryce Gibbs to remain in the Blues leadership group despite his failed attempt to leave the AFL club.Gibbs sensationally asked to be traded to Adelaide for family reasons in Octobers trade period, only to see bitter negotiations between Carlton and the Crows amount to nothing.The star midfielder, who is contracted for another three years, returned to the club for the first time since the trade fiasco on Monday.Murphy maintained Gibbs return wasnt awkward for him or his teammates, even though he wanted to play elsewhere, and believes the star midfielder is ready to move on.Hes a tremendous footballer and person - he loves the footy club and the footy club loves him - so its great to have him still with us, Murphy told reporters on Monday.He was obviously going through a range of emotions (after the trade didnt go through) ... he was doing it pretty tough.(But) hes had a lot of conversations with people at the footy club and I think hes in a really good space now.He ran a really good time this morning in one of our trials ... hes in really good condition and looking forward to a big year.Gibbs was sensationally installed in the Blues leadership group for the 2007 season by then coach Denis Pagan without having played an AFL game.The No.1 draft pick was given time to mature away from the group after a year and has been a trusted lieutenant of Murphys since he took over the captaincy from Chris Judd ahead of the 2013 season.Well go through a process but Id love to still have him in (the leadership group), Murphy said.Hes been a great leader for the footy club and been a great support to me, so Id love to have him in the leadership group.Whether or not hes in that group or not ... well find out in the next few months, but hell still be a leader around the footy club (regardless).Murphys hope is that, with proper off-field support, Gibbs wont seek to leave the club again at next years trade period.Murphy suffered a serious ankle injury in round 10 and didnt play again this season, but reported he is in full training and is suffering no lingering effects of the issue.

NEW YORK -- Baylor and South Florida put up points at record paces this week.The Lady Bears beat Winthrop 140-32 on Thursday in the biggest rout in Division I history. The 108-point margin of victory surpassed the 102 set by Grambling when it beat Jarvis Christian College 139-37 in 1986.We could have beaten a lot of teams today, Baylor coach Kim Mulkey said. We were just clicking on all cylinders. As I tell them during the game, Im not looking at the score. I am looking at your defense, I am looking at turnovers, I am looking at your execution of things. I was made aware after the game of all the records. Youre happy for players who break records, and when you get a chance for them to stay in another minute to get another basket, you do it because its not always going to be that way.That rout came only a day after South Florida scored 129 points in a victory over St. Francis. The 129 points were the most scored this season. That lasted for less than a day. Jose Fernandezs squad had seven players in double figures in the 129-80 victory and made 48 field goals. They shot 66 percent from the field.Other things that happened this week:POLL MUSINGS: With most teams on break for exams, it was a relatively light week. No. 6 South Carolina won the only matchup between ranked teams, beating ninth-ranked UCLA 66-57. No. 10 Stanford lost at Tennessee.SHORTHANDED UMASS: UMass coach Tory Verdi has his team at .500 after 12 games this season. An impressive feat for the first-year coach, who has had only six healthy players for much of the season because of injuries and transfers. Despite having to play his small squad big minutes, the Minutewomen (6-6) are finding ways to win. The latest victory Sunday saw the team rally from a 23-point deficit against Holy Cross.It was something Ive never experienced before, Verdi said of the small roster. I had to take a step back, customize our practices. I had to be creative. We just had to focus on little tthings.dddddddddddd.Verdi took over the program after spending the last four seasons at Eastern Michigan. UMass has seven scholarship players, with only six that are healthy enough to play right now.Freshman Hailey Leidel is the nations second-leading rookie scorer behind UNC Greensboros Nadine Soliman. Verdi also has to rely on junior Maggie Mulligan, who is near the top in the country in double-doubles.Our best basketball is ahead of us, Verdi said. Its the cards were dealt with and has put us in a position later on the season to be more successful. Our freshmen had to step up and step on the floor right away and play big minutes for us. Weve been through the ringer if you will as of right now.ROAR LIONS ROAR: Columbia finished off the first part of its season 8-2, the first time the Lions have won eight of their first 10 games in program history. Columbia has a six-game winning streak for the first time since 1986-87 -- the schools inaugural Division I season.As an alum, Im very happy and very proud of all that we have accomplished so far, said first-year head coach Megan Griffith, who played for the Lions in the mid 2000s. However, there is still a lot of basketball to be played and we have a lot of things to work on.Columbia is led by junior Camille Zimmerman, who became the 11th player in school history to score 1,000 points when she reached that milestone in a win over LIU last Monday. The Lions are on break now for exams and the holidays.HOLDING THE FORT: Colorado State won its program-record 22nd consecutive game at home on Sunday night, beating Seattle 66-62 to best the mark set in 1998-99.
