Cougar information from New Zealand hard to come by

COUGARS, EVENING NEWS

We had a score of the Cougars' first game on the Down Under tour posted here, but we haven't been able to verify it. All our searches for a box or game story have gone for naught, with the Auckland, New Zealand newspaper not carrying anything on its website. When the Cougs play in Australia on Thursday, which is today as far as I can figure out, we should have better luck.

• Thanks to CougNut, here's a link to the Australia Basketball Association's web site, where the 2007 World University Games team was announced. Of course the reason for the link is WSU's Aaron Baynes was named to the team.

• Here's another NBA mock draft with Eastern's Rodney Stuckey penciled in going 23rd to New York. He's called a steal, and at that spot he just may be.
