Ontheair six assists and two steals; Tasha Pimentel had six points, four rebounds and a steal and Mary DiMag- gio had four points and two steals.

The Lady Warriors (11- 10 overall, 3-1 league) re- main tied for first place with Chester and Redding Christian as they prepare for tonight's homecom- ing matchup with the Lib- erty Christian Patriots (0-8 overall, 0-4 league). Mercy FROM PAGE 1 to allow the St. Louis Rams to move, and also gave an option to the San Diego Chargers to join the Rams in L.A. That left the Raid- ers in an outdated stadium while they try to work out something in Oakland. So playing a home game elsewhere, particularly in the potentially profitable Mexican market, makes sense for the Raiders, too. No NFL game has been played in Mexico since a regular-season match be- tween Arizona and San Francisco in 2005 drew more than 103,000 to Az- teca Stadium. The NFL also has played seven pre- season games there, none since 2001. Mostly, the league has concentrated on games in London, and it has three scheduled for 2016. Wash- ington plays Cincinnati and Indianapolis plays Jacksonville at Wembley Stadium, with the Ben- gals and Jaguars as hosts. The Giants face the Rams at Twickenham Stadium, a rugby ground being used for the first time, with the Rams as host. Mexico FROM PAGE 1 hospitalized Thursday fol- lowing his surgery. Biffle was not present when Stewart crashed but told SiriusXM's NASCAR channel that "we started kind of hearing bits and pieces that he hurt his back." "I do know the people that helped him ... (said) he was walking and mov- ing all of his extremities, but he was in a lot of pain," Biffle said. This is yet another set- back in the final stages of one of the most storied ca- reers in racing. Stewart has slumped since breaking his leg in a 2013 sprint car ac- cident. A year later, he missed three races while in seclusion after his car struck and killed a fel- low driver at a dirt track in New York. Stewart was cleared of any criminal wrongdoing, but faces a civil suit from the family of Kevin Ward Jr. He has not won a race since 2013, before he broke his leg, and was 28th in the final Sprint Cup standings last year. He had just three top-10 finishes and 24 laps led, both career lows, and readily admitted his confi- dence was shot. A crew chief change was made for this season — the fourth different team leader Stewart will have since he won the 2011 ti- tle — and he hoped a new NASCAR rules package would better fit his driv- ing style and make him competitive in this final hurrah. No matter what hap- pened this year, Stewart insisted last month this will be his final NASCAR season. "If it's a terrible year, I'm not going to sit there and go, 'Wow, that defined my career,' because the stats will show what we did over 18 years," Stewart said. "I think no matter how the season goes, I'm going to be able to say I had a suc- cessful run in the Sprint Cup Series." Stewart FROM PAGE 1 MIKE MCCARN — THE ASSOCIATED PRESS FILE Stewart-Haas Racing co-owner and driver Tony Stewart talks to members of the media during the NASCAR Charlotte Motor Speedway Media Tour in Charlotte, N.C. The three-time NASCAR champion has been hospitalized with a back injury a er a non-racing accident on Sunday. those in attendance. There were no microphones on hand to record the words, no TV cameras to capture the moment. But the mes- sage was clear: No matter how hard things get, no matter how bleak things look — keep pounding. Mills talked about how he could have given up on fighting in the face of ter- minal cancer, but refused. Ricky Proehl, a Panthers wide receiver at the time, said the speech was so powerful that grown men were weeping. "Just keep pounding — that's where it all started," Proehl said. "Keep pound- ing, don't quit. No matter what the situation or the odds are just keep pound- ing." Said former Panthers quarterback Jake Del- homme: "Everybody had goose bumps. It gave you chills. The speech, it was much bigger than foot- ball — it was about life. It was like something out of a Hollywood movie." Added Proehl: "Unbe- lievable. The hair on the back of your neck stood up." Mills was one of Caroli- na's toughest players. When Mills revealed he had intestinal cancer in the summer of 2003, it sent shockwaves through- out the organization. Mills continued to coach the Panthers and far exceeded the three months doctors had given him to live. He died on April 18, 2005, at 45. The speech, his son said, was years in the making. His father never gave up. An undrafted rookie out of Montclair State, Mills tried time and time again to make a career out of football but nobody would sign him. He went to work as a high school teacher, but kept working out in his free time chasing a dream. Eventually he got a try- out with the USFL's Balti- more/Philadelphia Stars and quickly became one of the team's best players un- der coach Jim Mora. When Mora joined the New Or- leans Saints in 1986, he took Mills with him. Mills became the team's rock at middle linebacker and would become a four-time All-Pro. The Panthers continue to keep Mills' legacy alive. There is a statue of him outside of the team's down- town Charlotte stadium. Before every home game, someone is selected to bang a giant black drum on the field with the words "keep pounding" on it. Stephen Curry has hit it. So has 8-year-old can- cer survivor Braylon Beam. Nobody on the cur- rent roster played with or was coached by Mills. Yet, rookies and new free agents all know his story. They're told of his legacy by longtime employees like equipment manager Jackie Miles, head athletic trainer Ryan Vermillion or Proehl, now the team's wide receiv- ers coach. Ask anyone, they know the story. "Regardless of the things that are going on in your life on the football field or off, you never give up — you just keep pounding," full- back Mike Tolbert said. Defensive end Charles Johnson: "It means you never quit — never."
