It was Nadal’s first chance to play the tourna- ment’s opening match on Centre Court, an honor given to the defending men’s champion, and something he called a ‘‘big emotion.’’ Bad knees forced Nadal to with- draw in 2009, a year after he won Wimbledon for the first time. He was more blase about his parents’ special seats, saying: ‘‘It doesn’t make any RODEO Continued from page 1B Coffeyville CC and Braden Harmon, West- ern Oklahoma State College, 13.8.

Curry is considered untradeable by the team because he’s two years younger and has a more friendly contract than Ellis, the eighth-highest scorer in the league last sea- son at 24.1 points per game. Riley, while acknowledging that he still gets far more trade inquiries for Curry, also knows his biggest bargaining piece is Ellis because of salary cap limitations. That doesn’t make the decision any easi- er. difference to me whether I see them in my (guest) box or in the Royal Box. But I think it was a beautiful expe- rience for them.’’ Nadal now faces another American, 69th-ranked Ryan Sweeting of Ft. Laud- erdale, Fla., who dropped the first two sets against Pablo Andujar of Spain before coming all the way back to win 3-6, 4-6, 6-1, 7- 6 (1), 6-1. It’ll be Sweeting’s third match against Nadal this year. Nadal won the others in straight sets, including at the Australian Open. ‘‘They keep putting me up in the top half of the draw. I don’t know what the deal is,’’ Sweeting said. ‘‘What can I say? He’s obviously one of the toughest opponents to play on any surface.’’ The second question at Nadal’s news conference concerned whether he believes Murray, Roger Fed- erer or Novak Djokovic is likeliest to thwart his title hopes. ‘‘My biggest opponent is Sweeting now. I am focused on my part of the draw. I’m focused on myself. To play against Andy or Djokovic or Federer only can be in the final; against Andy in the semifinals,’’ the Spaniard replied. ‘‘So let’s talk about today. Let’s talk about tomorrow. ... Let’s (not) talk about ... 10 days or 12 days (from now), because I don’t know if I am here or I am fishing in Mallorca.’’ Women’s Team 1, Montana State, 560 points. 2, Sam Houston State, 430. 3, Tarleton State, 402.5. 4, Texas Tech, 307.5.
