| ATLANTA -- The Los Angeles Sparks fell short of the fastest start in WNBA history Sunday when they lost to the Atlanta Dream 91-74.Los Angeles (20-2) had tied the 1998 Houston Comets, who finished the regular season 27-3, for the fastest start. The loss also snapped the Sparks WNBA record nine-game road winning streak to open a season.Layshia Clarendon had 17 points, eight rebounds and six assists for Atlanta. Angel McCoughtry had 17 points, Bria Holmes scored a career-high tying 15 and Tiffany Hayes added 14 points for the Dream (12-11).

LINCOLN, Neb. -- Tommy Armstrong Jr. isnt pouting over not being voted a team captain, even though he is going into his fourth year as Nebraskas starting quarterback and was a captain in 2015.Captains are chosen, leaders are born, Armstrong said Monday. Day one, Ive always been a leader here.The situation is similar to what happened at Michigan State last year, when veteran QB Connor Cook wasnt voted a captain. The difference is that Cook expressed disappointment and Armstrong did not.That title doesnt mean anything to me, he said, just because at the end of the day I know Im a leader.Receiver Jordan Westerkamp, center Dylan Utter, safety Nate Gerry and linebacker Josh Banderas were voted captains. Armstrong said he voted for Westerkamp, his roommate, rather than for himself and that each of the four captains was deserving.Coach Mike Riley acknowledged he was a bit taken aback when Armstrong wasnt chosen, and he gave him a heads-up before he spoke to the team.I didnt want him to be surprised, just a blunt announcement like that, Riley said. He is absolutely still a leader on the team and hes really well respected, and we can attest to that with the votes he got.Armstrong isnt the first veteran Nebraska quarterback to come up short on a captains vote. Tommie Frazier wasnt a captain when he led the Huskers to national championships in 1994 and 95, and neither was Scott Frost when he led them to a share of the 1997 title.Armstrongs charge this season is to help the Huskers bounce back from a 6-7 record in Rileys first year. The seniorr from Cibolo, Texas, goes into Saturdays opener at home against Fresno State 22-11 as the starter.dddddddddddd. He matched his career high with 22 touchdown passes last season. He also had 16 interceptions, second most of any quarterback at a Power Five conference school.I think another year under his belt is a big, big deal, Riley said. Even through last year Tommy learned, progressed and played better probably in the last month. So I think he took that as a springboard into the opportunity to grow and play better this year.Though the Huskers feature one of the best receiving corps in the Big Ten, Riley and offensive coordinator Danny Langsdorf plan to make use of Armstrongs running ability. That was on display in the Foster Farms Bowl win over UCLA when Armstrong ran 10 times for 76 yards.It is a great weapon used wisely and not probably over-used, Riley said. If we can get him on the edge and its one-on-one, then thats pretty good. With this guys ability, we cant pass it up, and he doesnt want to, either. He likes it.Armstrong ran 98 times for 400 yards last season. Its possible his rushing numbers will be closer to what they were in 2014, when he had 145 carries for 705 yards in Bo Pelinis last season.If my number is called, when we need first downs and things like that, Im ready for it, he said. This is one of the things thatll help our offense improve, by having another threat in the running game.
