ANNAPOLIS, Md. -- Phillip Walker threw two touchdown passes, Temples defense stuffed Navys running game and the Owls claimed their first American Athletic Conference title with a 34-10 victory Saturday.After Temple (10-3) scored touchdowns on its first three possessions, protecting the 21-0 lead became substantially easier when No. 19 Navy (9-3, No. 20 AP) lost standout quarterback Will Worth to a second-quarter ankle injury.Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo said Worth is done for the season, along with running backs Toneo Gulley and Darryl Bonner, both of whom left with first-half injuries.Although the defeat took Navy out of the running for the Cotton Bowl, the Midshipmen are expected to play in the Armed Forces Bowl after facing Army next Saturday.The Owls extended their winning streak to seven and earned their first league title since finishing atop the Middle American Conference in 1967.It showed we have a really good team that is capable of doing a lot of good things, said Walker, who went 16 for 25 for 199 yards.Temple lost to Houston in last years AAC Championship game. This time, the Owls dominated from the outset.Not only did Temple open with TD drives of 75, 59 and 70 yards, but the defense quashed a Navy attack that was averaging 61 points over its previous three games.They just played better. It wasnt a magic wand, Niumatalolo said. They just hit us in the mouth and we hadnt been hit in the mouth for a long time. Normally, we hit other people in the mouth. To Temples credit, they hit us in the mouth. We were dazed the whole game. Its like they hit us with an overhand right.The Midshipmen had scored on 34 of 38 drives -- including 33 touchdowns -- before being denied on their first three possessions by Temple. Worth was injured at the end of the third drive and did not return.That spelled doom for an offense that produced more than 500 yards in each of its last three games. Navy finished with 306 yards, 168 on the ground.Backup quarterback Zach Abey went 7 for 13 for 104 yards and two interceptions.I missed some reads, wish I had some plays back, he said.The result was the end of Navys 15-game home winning streak.Middle linebacker Jarred Alwan led the Owls defense with 13 tackles, and Sean Chandler contributed eight tackle and forced a fumble.Temple took the suspense out of the game with an early show of offensive firepower. After Walker completed a 13-yard pass for Keith Kirkwood on fourth-and-7 from the Navy 28, Jahad Thomas ran for a 15-yard score.A 22-yard touchdown pass to Ventell Bryant made it 14-0, and Walker followed a Navy turnover with a perfectly thrown long pass that Kirkwood caught in stride for a 56-yard score.The injury to Worth occurred on Navys next possession.They just played better than we did, Niumatalolo said. It wasnt schematic. They just beat the crap out of us.After falling behind 24-3 at halftime, the Midshipmen got a 47-yard run from Abey during a drive late in the third quarter that ended with the quarterback scoring from the Temple 1.A 42-yard field goal by Aaron Boumerhi with 10:17 left ended any hope of a Navy comeback.THE TAKEAWAYTemple: The Owls played exceptionally well in proving to be a worthy conference champion. Even before the injuries to Navys backfield, Temples defense successfully tackled the challenge of slowing down Navys formidable offense.Navy: The Midshipmen had it all going for them: Momentum on offense, home-field advantage and the incentive of playing in the Cotton Bowl. But Navy wasnt sharp enough to put a dent in a Temple defense that had allowed a total of 10 points in its previous three games.UP NEXTTemple: The Owls expect to learn their bowl destination on Sunday.Navy: The annual Army-Navy game will be held in Baltimore on Saturday. The Midshipmen will be looking for their 15th straight win in the series.

Reassurance came from Paul Tesori, his caddie and close friend whose newborn son is in intensive care in a Florida hospital. "Paul sent me a text this morning, just told me he loved me and wanted to go out and fight as hard as I would any other day," Simpson said Sunday after doing just that. Yorkshire 180 for 8 (Willey 79, Lees 36, Ingram 4-32) beat Glamorgan 90 (Rashid 4-26) by ScorecardYorkshire completed a quarter-final clean sweep for the North Group to join Nottinghamshire, Northamptonshire and Durham on NatWest T20 Blast finals day at Edgbaston a week on Saturday.On a good pitch, they seemed to have left themselves slightly vulnerable when their last eight overs added only 46 to a 12-over score of 134 for 3 but Glamorgan lost five wickets for 34 in the Powerplay, after which Yorkshires place in the semi-finals was all but guaranteed.Jacques Rudolph, against his former teammates, offered a brief flurry of shots to keep the Cardiff crowd from going home embarrassingly early but as it was they were dismissed for 90 in just 13 overs, their lowest total of the season.Adil Rashid arrived from The Oval to take four wickets for 26 but the performance of the night belonged to David Willey, whose 79 off 38 deliveries contained six sixes and ultimately underlined the disparity in terms of depth of quality that sets these sides so far apart, the one seeking to win a third County Championship in a row, the other at the bottom of Division Two.Yorkshire have some momentum behind them now across all formats, their Championship campaign gathering pace and their hot streak in this competition continuing. Having offered little evidence that their problems mastering the shortest format were anywhere near being solved in the first half of the Blast season, when they won only one of their first seven matches, they now have seven victories in the last eight.Willey is developing the useful habit of producing his best when it counts for most. A year ago he made 100 off 41 balls to power Northamptonshire into the semi-finals at the expense of Sussex on a thrilling night at Hove, having won the competition almost on his own three years earlier with 60 off 27 balls and 4 for 9 against Surrey in the final at Edgbaston.He was into his stride immediately, driving Graham Wagg down the ground four consecutive fours before going after Michael Hogan with a hook for six, then two more strong hits for four.Shaun Taits opening over removed Adam Lyth with a slower ball struck straight to mid-off before Tim van der Gugtens second over conceded only two singles as Glamorgan responded but then an awful over from Tait, with a no-baall for over-stepping and another for a ridiculously high bouncer, was punished ruthlessly by Alex Lees, who lifted the free hit over the long on boundary as 22 were added.ddddddddddddIt had been Glamorgans most expensive powerplay of the season and it was a while before things got much better. Willey pulled a half-tracker from Craig Meschede for his second six before hitting sending two in a row into the crowd off Hogan to be 58 off 29 balls.Lees, who had come close to matching his partners aggression, miscued Wagg to long-off but Willeys assault continued with two more maximums before Colin Ingram, himself on the end of sixth one, produced a loopy googly that finally ended the butchery. Nonetheless, 134 for 3 off 12 was a handsome position.From that platform, 180 for 8 felt like a disappointment, although still the highest score on this ground this season and perhaps 25 over par. Ingram, bravely giving the ball air and mixing googlies and leg spinners, finished with 4 for 32, his best figures in T20, and Tim van der Gugten kept his nerve too as Yorkshire lost six for 35 in six overs and four balls.Tait recovered well from his mauling by Lees and at the end of the innings the quieter dug-out was the one occupied by Yorkshire.How quickly that changed. Tim Bresnan removed David Lloyd with the first delivery of the new innings as the ball deflected off an inside edge on to the base of the stumps, sparking the crash of wickets that left Glamorgan in a hole from which there was no escape.Mark Wallace drove Bresnan straight to short extra cover, Aneurin Donald missed completely with an ugly heave across the line, Matthew Waite, the 20-year-old seamer making his first appearance of the season, enjoyed the sight of Ingram top-edging a short ball to long leg and Liam Plunkett beat Wagg for pace.Now Rashid, so adept at finishing things off, now moved in for the kill and four of the five remaining wickets were his, Plunkett taking an athletic boundary catch to dismiss Meschede, Andrew Salter succumbing to the googly, van der Gugten and Hogan departing two balls apart in what transpired was the last over. The only one to escape the England spinner was Rudolph, who holed out off Azeem Rafiq. ' ' '
