Comets start WNBA dynasty
HOUSTON — The WNBA has a dynasty before it had two championship teams.
The Associated Press
"When you win three in a row, I think that's taking a step." Houston coach Van Chancellor said, the WNBA trophy gleaming in front of him, after the Comets beat New York 59-47 Sunday to win their third straight WNBA title in the third year of the league's existence. "It doesn't get any better than this."
With their 2-1 series victory against the Liberty, the Comets join the NBA's Lakers, Celtics and Bulls as the only pro basketball teams to grab three consecutive league championships.
"It was a long road," series MVP Cynthia Cooper said. She topped the

Cooper was just 1-for-10 from the field in a 68-76 loss Saturday. She hit Houston's first shot Sunday, then

league MVP, insisted it was too early to talk about dynasties.
For the playoffs, she averaged 20 points, four rebounds and almost seven assists.
The Liberty closed to 38-13 before Tina Thompson broke Houston's scoreless steak and started a 10-0 run for a 48-31 lead with 4:28 to play. Thompson also had a jumper and a three-point play for seven of the 10 points.
"We just couldn't get anything to drop for us," said Sue Wicks, the only Liberty player in double figures with 11 points. "Our defense was strong, I felt, but to win this game you have to put some points on the board."
Cooper, who led the league in scoring this season and is a two-time
"We just want to enjoy this championship," she said.
The title was the first for Houston without Perrot, the spunky point guard whose presence hovered over the team and Compaq Center. Fans chanted her name and carried signs with her name and picture and jersey No.10.
"If you don't think the spirit of Kim Perrot is not alive in the Comets' world right now, you're dead wrong," Chancellor said. "I thought all along that 12 Comets pulling together would be hard to beat because she's still on this team."
Capriati explains past arrests after loss
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Jennifer Capriati spoke of her teen-age rebellion and confusion as she sought to close the door on her past. Yet she revealed how fragile she remains, leaving the U.S. Onen once again in tears.
An hour after losing to Monica Seles 6-4, 6-3 in the fourth round yesterday, Capriati began a news conference by reading a statement she wrote before the tournament and saved until she was finished.
"I know there is much mystery, much question to what happened, and I must also say many lies," the 23-year-old player said of the collapse of her career in 1993, her subsequent arrests on shoplifting and drug possession charges, and her rehabilitation.
"Yes, I made mistakes by rebelling, by acting out in confused ways," she said, taking deep breaths as she read. "But it was all due to the fact I was very young, and I was experiencing my adolescence. Most of you know how hard that can be. When you do it in front of the world, it is even harder."
Capriati added that this would be the last time she speaks about the past, and asked the media to respect her wishes to stay away from the subject.
Then in response to questions about her statement, she said she wrote it because she was tired of all the questions about her past.
Until that point in the long news conference, Capriati kept her composure, talking about her statement, her "self inflicted" problems and the match with Seles.
Then she was asked, "Do you still see the media as your adversary?" Capriati hesitated, then broke off and began sobbing uncontrollably.
She had left tournaments in tears before — the U.S. Open in 1992 after losing in the third round and the Australian Open in 1993 after losing in the quarters, among others. She spoke of being stronger than in those days, being able to keep things in perspective, yet she remains in some ways as fragile as ever.
Rain, tears disrupt play at U.S. Open
The Associated Press
NEWYORK — Marcelo Rios left the U.S. Open in defeat and Jennifer Capriati left in tears. Jana Novotna left tennis altogether.
Novotna, who won the 1998 Wimbledon title, said Monday she would finish this year's tournaments, but this would be her last year as a player.
In addition to Novotna's announcement, play at the U.S. Open also was disrupted by rain.
In between the showers, Nicolas Escude of France became the first qualifier in the Open era to reach the quarterfinals of the U.S. Open, upsetting the 10th-seeded Rios 6-2, 6-3, 7-5.
Also moving into the quarterfinals was No.2 Andre Agassi, who breezed past Arnaud Clement of France 6-4, 6-4, 6-3.
Among the women, No. 4 Monica Seles and No. 7 Serena Williams also moved into the quarters. Seles brushed aside the past in beating Capriati 6-4, 6-3, and Williams stumbled past
No. 16 Conchita Martinez 4-6, 6-2,
6-2.
Rios was unable to solve Escude's game.
Williams joined older sister Venus in the quarters. Serena struck 45 winners to just seven for the Spanish veteran, but tempered that with 52 unforced errors, more than double that of her opponent. She plays Seles next.
With mist briefly halting play several times, Seles dominated from the baseline, erasing any
notion that this would be a repeat of the last time she and Capriati got together at the U.S. Open.
In 1991, Capriati came within two points of victory before Seles won the last five points of the third-set tiebreaker.
This time, the fourth-seeded Seles kept Capriati deep on the baseline. She hit 21 winners to 13 for Capriati.
