VANCOUVER -- The B.C. Lions accomplished their mission Saturday night. They succeeded in their goal of limiting star Calgary running back Jon Cornish, while handing the Stampeders a 26-22 loss at B.C. Place Stadium. "We ran through our plan totally," said Lions nickelback Korey Banks, who forced Cornish to fumble in the second quarter, setting up a touchdown that put B.C. ahead to stay. "Hes a great back and he runs behind a great (offensive) line. Calgary was as good as advertised. They were 5-1 for a reason. We knew it was going to be a tough fight. We come out and played our best." The Lions improved to 5-2 and moved into a tie for second place with the Stampeders, who are also 5-2. B.C. avenged a one-sided season-opening loss to the Stampeders and ended their winning streak at four games. But the win was not all about defence. Tim Brown returned a kick-off 97 yards for a touchdown and Andrew Harris scored on a 40-yard passing play. Backup quarterback Thomas DeMarco also scored a touchdown for B.C., the first of his CFL career. The Lions earned their remaining points from a Paul McCallum field goal, three converts and a late safety conceded by Calgary. Cornish did score a touchdown for Calgary, on a short run, but the Lions held him to 73 yards rushing and just 10 through the air. The effort was a stark contrast from his previous game when he ran for 175 yards and four touchdowns against Saskatchewan, and the June 28 season opener against B.C. when he scored four TDs. Marquay McDaniel also scored a touchdown for Calgary, while Rene Paredes furnished two field goals and a pair of converts. B.C. also surrendered a safety. "I think if you look at the film we made a lot of mistakes," said McDaniel. "Not to take anything away from B.C. They played great. But I think when we look at the film, Im pretty sure theres a lot of mistakes out there. Calgary general manager and coach John Hufnagel lamented his teams struggles to close the gap on B.C.s seemingly precarious 21-16 half-time lead. "We really had a poor third quarter, and thats because we did not do a good job catching the football," said Hufnagel. "I didnt think it was the quarterbacks play that hindered us. We need to catch the football." The Lions, who have had trouble scoring in the first quarter this season, got off to a quick start as Harris caught a short pass from Travis Lulay and scampered into the end zone from 40 yards out on B.C.s first drive. Harris gained the upper hand on Cornish in the ongoing rivalry between the two Canadian tailbacks. The Lion gained 117 all-purpose yards as he rushed for 56 on 13 carries and gained 61 more on three pass receptions. "I dont even know what the stats were," said Harris. "Im just happy we got the win." Cornish enabled the Stampeders to draw even at 7-7 as he bulldozed two yards into the end zone late in the first quarter. But B.C. quickly took the lead again, with Brown returning Paredes ensuing kick-off 97 yards for a touchdown. Parades had a chance to tackle Brown near the sideline, but he turned away and did not make contact while Brown twisted in the opposite direction and angled his way into the end zone. Brown said he saw Paredes, but he also got a block that enabled him to go away from him. A safety conceded by McCallum helped the Stampeders reduce their deficit to 14-9. Calgary took a 16-14 lead midway through the second quarter after Kevin Glenn connected with Marquay McDaniel on a 14-yard touchdown pass. But a rare miscue by Cornish enabled the Lions to take a 21-14 lead. After catching a Glenn pass, Cornish was hit hard by B.C. nickelback Korey Banks and the ball popped into the hands of linebacker Adam Bighill. Although the ball did not hit the ground, it was ruled as a fumble, with Banks credited for the force. But he downplayed his effort. "Id rather get the win than turnovers," he said. "We encircled the ball from the first quarter to the fourth quarter." B.C. got the ball on Calgarys 28-yard line. Four plays later, backup quarterback Thomas DeMarco plunged across the goal-line. "It was a great feeling to get back into the end zone," said DeMarco, a second-year pro who had not hit paydirt since college and has yet to throw a TD pass in the CFL. The touchdown came after a pass interference penalty on Calgarys Chris Randle, who tugged on Emmanuel Arceneaux in the end zone, giving B.C. the ball at the Stampeders one-yard line. DeMarco was searching for the ball after the game, hoping that someone from the club had secured it for him. "If I can find it, Ill keep it," he said. Lulay completed 16 of 28 passes for 223 yards, but was intercepted three times. Glenn was good on 22 of 38 pass attempts for 199 yards with no picks. Calgary managed to get in scoring range in the closing seconds, but a Glenn incompletion on a third-and-one situation gave the Lions the ball and the victory. The Stampeders passing game was hurt by the loss of veteran Nik Lewis in the first half. Hufnagel said he suffered a broken leg. "For the next half-dozen games, yes, hell be out of the lineup," said Hufnagel. "Yes, he is instrumental to our football team, but thats the game. Not one person is bigger than the team. "We just wish Nik a speedy recovery." Notes: The Lions made a last-minute uniform change to what the club called new "gun-metal grey" attire featuring orange paws and piping.

Alexander Mattison Vikings Jersey . -- Playing time has been limited for Maxim Tissot this season, so the Montreal Impact defender made the most of his first scoring opportunity on Saturday. The lottery results are in and the order is set. The Cleveland Cavaliers were the big winners at this years draft lottery giving them the top pick in the draft. That means its time speculate on which prospects will end up where. So lets get at it with version 1.0 of the TSN.ca 2013 Mock Draft. 1. Cleveland Cavaliers - C Nerlens Noel - Kentucky Analysis: The Cavaliers will probably listen to offers for the top pick, but if they elect to keep it than Noel is the safe bet. He is long, athletic, brings a great defensive presence and getting better offensively. 2. Orlando Magic - PG Trey Burke - Michigan Analysis: If the Magic are picking first they likely dont go with Burke. But they need a point guard and at No. 2 Burke is worth it. He is a bit undersized but is very strong and has terrific court vision. The Magic need leadership and a bit of swagger and Burke brings both. 3. Washington Wizards - PF Anthony Bennett - UNLV Analysis: This could be a reach with guys like McLemore and Porter on the board but the Wizards are pretty set in the backcourt and Bennett would give them some much needed options at the four. The Canadian is undersized but is super athletic, has a polished offensive game and most importantly is NBA ready. 4. Charlotte Bobcats - SG Ben McLemore - Kansas Analysis: Another tough lottery for the Bobcats but its not all bad. McLemore has tremendous potential might end up being the best player in the draft. The Bobcats are in need of a shooter and McLemore might be the best in the draft in that department with a quick release and excellent range. 5. Phoenix Suns - SF Otto Porter Jr. - Georgetown Analysis: The Suns will be thrilled if Porter falls to them at No.5. He has great length for the wing, is a good facilitator and has a great mid-range game. The Big East player of the year would be a very solid building block for the rebuild in Phoenix. 6. New Orleans Pelicans - SF Victor Oladipo - Indiana Analysis: There has been talk that Indianas crazy-athletic swingman could go as high as first overall. Thats unlikely with the Cavs choosing first thought and Oladipo would be a great addition to the young core in New Orleans. He can have an immediate impact on the defensive end and his offensive game is expanding. 7. Sacramento Kings - SF Shabazz Muhammad - UCLA Analysis: The small forward position is a big need for Sacramento and Muhammad is one of the most gifted scorers in the draft. He has good range and can finish at the rim. He is a bit one-dimensional though and that might not making him the best fit for a roster already loaded with me-first players. 8. Detroit Pistons - PG Michael Carter-Williams - Syracuse Analysis: At 66, Carter-Williams has excellent height for an NBA point guard. He is a great ball-handler, has excellent court vision and can move to the two spot when needed. His outside shot needs work but Carter-Williams would still be a nice complement to Brandon Knight. 9. Minnesota Timberwolves - G C.J. McCollum - Lehigh Analysis: The Timberwolves are pretty set for playmakers with guys like Ricky Rubio and Alexey Shved, but they desperately need shooting. McCollum would give them just that. He is very good scorer and excellent in transisition. 10. Portland Trail Blazers - C Alex Len - Maryland Analysis: Marlyands skilled big man would be a nice addition to the Trail Blazers young core. He is a good athlete for a player his size and brings solid reboudning and shot-blocking. He also has a nice touch and is a good passer from the post. 11. Philadelphia 76ers - C Cody Zeller - Indiana Analysis: The best of the Zeller brothers put on an incredibly athletic display at the NBA combine which should help solidify his position as a late lottery pick. His excellent testing numbers should help convince scouts that he can make the transition to the four spot, a place of need for the Sixers, at the NBA level. 12. Oklahoma City Thunder (via TOR) - SG Kentavious Caldwell-Pope - Georgia Analysis: Caldwell-Pope looks like your prototypical NBA shooting guard. He is a very good athlete and a much better shooter than he showed at the combine. The Thunders early playoff exit showed just how badly then need scoring depth and Caldwell-Pope would give them that with his range. 13. Dallas Mavericks - PG Dennis Schroeder - Germany Analysis: The Dallas Mavericks are reportedly trying to trade their pick to save cap space for then run at Dwight Howard. But if they dont, why not get a guy with great upside that Dirk can speak German with? Schroeder is lightning quick with a massive wingspan (6-foot-8) and wowed scouts at the Nike Hoop Summit. 14. Utah Jazz - SF Dario Saric - Croatia Analysis: Saric is considered by many to be the best Euro prospect in the draft. He has a very high basketball IQ, is a good ball handler and has the potential to be a legitimate star someday. Whether or not he ever reaches his potential is another question. 15. Milwaukee Bucks - SG Allen Crabbe - Cal Analysis: The Bucks are in need of a shooter and Crabbe is just that. He had a very good showing at the combine displaying a smooth, effortless stroke. He also measured well and put up better than expected athletic numbers. 16. Boston Celtiics - C Rudy Gobert - France Analysis: At this point in the draft a 7-foot-2 height and mammoth 9-foot-7 standing reach are very intriguing assets.ddddddddddddWith this type of size, the big frenchman is a born rebounder and shot-blocker. He is also a surprisingly good athlete for someone so big. If he can add some polish to his game Gobert has huge potential. 17. Atlanta Hawks - PF Mason Plumlee - Duke Analysis: Plumlee is a 7-footer that is a terrific athlete. That makes him a hot commodity at this point in the draft. As a 23-year-old senior he is older than most of the other prospects, but the upside is he is also more ready to contribute right away than most. 18. Atlanta Hawks (via HOU) - SG Jamaal Franklin - San Diego St. Analysis: The Mountain West Conference Player of the Year is very long and athletic. What really makes him an enticing prospect is his energy and competitiveness. He is an elite rebounder for his position and is fearless slashing into the paint. The Hawks are pretty set in the backcourt but Franklin is versatile enough to play some small forward as well. 19. Cleveland Cavaliers(via LAL) - C Gorgui Deng - Louisville Analysis: Dieng is likely headed for a career as a backup center, but he has the potential to be a very good one. He is very long and mobile with excellent shot-blocking and rebounding ability. He would fit in nicely coming off the bench behind Anderson Varejao. 20. Chicago Bulls - C Steven Adams - Pittsburgh Analysis: Physically, Adams looks exactly like an NBA center should. He also showed off a surprisingly nice touch on his jump shot at the combine. Still, he is very raw and playing on a roster with Joakim Noah would give the young Kiwi time to develop. 21. Utah Jazz (via GS) - PG Shane Larkin - Miami Analysis: The Jazz need a point guard and Larkin fits the bill nicely. He is quick, agressive and has good range on his jump shot. He had a very strong combine, shooting the ball well and putting up excellent athletic testing numbers including a ridiculous 44-inch vertical. He is also a very solid defender. 22. Brooklyn Nets - SF Tony Mitchell - North Texas Analysis: At this point in the draft its probably worth taking a flyer on a wild card like Mitchell. There are commitment question marks and his production was a disappointment last season. But his potential is very intriguing given how explosive of an athlete he is. If Mitchell harnesses that potential he is a steal this late. 23. Indiana Pacers - C Kelly Olynyk - Gonzaga Analysis: Olynyk has slipped on a lot of draft boards lately thanks in large part to his underwhelming measurements at the combine. Despite standing 7-feet, his reach is only 6-foot-10 which makes him this years T-Rex prospect. Still, he has a polished and versatile offensive game which should serve him well. At this point in the draft he holds great value. 24. New York Knicks - SF Sergey Karasev - Russia Analysis: We all know how much the Knicks love to shoot the three and Karasev is one of the best in the draft from long range. Karasev understands the game well and can fit into a variety of different systems. 25. Los Angeles Clipperss - SG Glen Rice Jr. - NBA D-League Analysis: Rice played extremely well in the D-League, displaying a game that looked pro ready. The lingering questions about his character after being kicked off the team at Georgia Tech and a poor showing at the combine hurt his stock though. Still, a high upside pick. 26. Minnesota Timberwolves - SF Giannis Antetokounmpo - Greece Analysis: Say hello to the drafts most mysterious prospect. He appears to have the physical tools - size, length and great athleticism - and skill to be a special player in the NBA some day. But he is completely unproven and its tough to project whether his talents will translate when faced with better competition. Definitely worth a flyer though. 27. Denver Nuggets - PG Pierre Jackson - Baylor Analysis: Jackson is a speedy, undersized guard with great scoring instincts and a huge vertical. Hes kind of a corss between Ty Lawson-lite and Nate Robinson. That exciting athleticism would serve him well with the high octane Nuggets. 28. San Antonio Spurs - C Jeff Withey - Kansas Analysis: Withey will likely never be a star in the NBA. But a player with his tools, size, mobility, shot-blocking and rebounding is always valuable in the NBA, particularly at this point in the draft. He is also particularly adept at playing tough, interior defence and blocking shots without picking up fouls. 29. Oklahoma City Thunder - G Alex Abrines - Spain Analysis: Abrines is a definite candidate for the best sleeper pick in the draft. He is only 20 and is already contributing for one of the best teams in Europe. He is a great shooter and a very good ball handler. In a couple of years he could become a very good player in the NBA. 30. Phoenix Suns (via Miami) - SG Archie Goodwin - Kentucky Analysis: Goodwin is still something of an unknown. He has great athleticism and appears to have a ton of potential but he was very unproductive as a freshman at Kentucky. He needs to fix his jump shot but hes probably still worth the 30th pick as a project for the rebuilding Suns. ' ' '
