SAULT STE. MARIE, Ont. - Mike McEwen defeated reigning Olympic champion Brad Jacobs 5-2 to win the National on Sunday.McEwen stole one in the seventh and added another point in the eighth for the victory at the Essar Centre in Jacobs hometown.I thought we recovered quick from a few misses that I made. The guys really supported me to give me that chance to mentally come back, said McEwen. I was pretty proud of the team for how consistent they were and propping me up a little bit for the first half of the game.With the win, the Winnipeg skip moves past Jacobs and into top spot on the World Curling Tours Order of Merit.Unfortunately, we didnt bring our best effort to the ice today and we didnt get any breaks, and you lose as a result of that sometimes, said Jacobs. It was a really fun event for us. We would have loved to win it for the Soo, but we just didnt have it today.The National is the second of five Grand Slam of Curling events this season.McEwen reached the final at the Masters earlier this month but lost to 2006 Olympic champion Brad Gushue of St. Johns.The next Grand Slam stop is the Dec. 9-14 Canadian Open at Gallagher Centre in Yorkton, Sask.

Hes young, hes getting stronger, hes getting faster, hes working on his technique. Hes a force to be reckoned with for sure.Hes hungry and hes coming for the top.MacDonald also has a new nickname, with Red King replacing Ares which replaced The Water Boy.GSP may also be a factor again down the line. The 33-year-old ex-champ has yet to say whether he will return to action following his hiatus.The 31-year-old Hendricks has not fought since securing the title, requiring surgery in the aftermath to repair a torn bicepp.dddddddddddd Hendricks had hurt the arm in training and the injury got worse in the first round.He promises he will be a different fighter this time. Hendricks, a two-time NCAA wrestling champion, blames the arm injury for making just two of 10 takedown attempts against Lawler. He also hurt his shin in the fight.The time off was rejuvenating, Hendricks said.Fighting is a tough business, he said Its a gruelling business, its a grind. What was nice was I got that desire back, that willing to fight again, to remember why you fight ... Getting that hunger back I think is really going to help me for that next fight.Hendricks has no apologies to make. Hendricks-Lawler 1 was a thriller, with the champion winning the first two rounds before Lawler came on in the third and fourth. Hendricks decided it with a gritty fifth round.Robbies very tough. Hes very hard to put away, said Hendricks.He says Lawler pulled ahead in the middle rounds because the injured arm hindered his defence.He saw those openings and he capitalized on it, said Hendricks, who trains in the Dallas area. Thats what Ive got to make sure I dont allow this time. The two fighters attempted a combined 728 significant strikes, with Hendricks good on 159 of 397 and Lawler successful on 150 of 331.He just did a couple of things better than me, said Lawler, who has moved his family to Florida from Iowa to train year-round at American Top Team. Hes a competitor, he knows how to win, he knows how to win rounds. He competed a little bit better than me that night.While Hendricks healed up, Lawler fought twice in the aftermath of the title loss. The 32-year-old stopped Jake Ellenberger in May and won a decision over Matt (The Immortal) Brown in July.I love pushing myself, said Lawler. Im a competitor. I love to work out. I love to fight ... Its just how I am. If Im healthy, Im going to fight.Follow @NeilMDavidson on Twitter Stitched College JerseysCheap UCLA JerseysNCAA Louisville Cardinals JerseysNorth Carolina Jerseys Stitched Kentucky Wildcats JerseysStitched Alabama Crimson Tide JerseysCheap Basketball Wisconsin Badgers JerseysAuthentic NCAA Jerseys StoreWholesale Basketball NCAA JerseysCheap Duke GearStitched Alabama JerseysStitched Georgia JerseysCheap Clemson Jerseys AuthenticAuthentic Texas JerseysWholesale USC JerseysStitched Oklahoma JerseysStitched Ohio State JerseysCheap Notre Dame GearUCLA Jerseys From ChinaCheap Louisville Jerseys Free ShippingCheap North Carolina Jerseys AuthenticCheap Kentucky Jerseys AuthenticWisconsin Jerseys From ChinaCheap Michigan GearCheap Florida GearWholesale Arizona State JerseysCheap LSU GearCheap Auburn GearCheap California Jerseys Free ShippingCheap Miami Jerseys AuthenticCheap Michigan State GearCheap Tennessee Jerseys AuthenticTexas A&M Jerseys From ChinaAuthentic Wake Forest JerseysWest Virginia Jerseys From China ' ' '
