Record: W 9 - L 16
WCC: W 2 - L 8
Since our game in Malibu, the Waves have lost 4 games in conference play and bring a 6 game losing streak into Gersten.
These games are hopefully Coach Johnson’s forte. Will we have a full squad (I.e., 5 players) to field Saturday?
Gametime: Saturday, Feb 10, 6 pm in Gersten.
Video: ESPN+.

Yes, if anyone has updates on Harris and/or Leaupepe please let us know. I’d love for at least one of them to be available this game.
Also, it didn’t appear that Lewis was even on the bench in San Diego (unless I missed him). Do we know his availability?

Not to mention McBride and Issanza?

Best I could tell watching the USD game it looked like Issanza and McBride were on the bench and in sweats, like Leaupepe.
McBride‘s left hand still appeared to be wrapped/in a cast.
But I didn’t see Lewis, maybe he was there and I just missed him.

Anyone know when the last time we had a 5 game winning streak against the Waves was, if ever? Would definitely be nice to keep the steak alive this year.

Lions are favored by 6.5.
Elsewhere, the Zags play #17 Kentucky on the road at 1 pm on CBS.
Kentucky favored by 5.5.
A win by the Zags would help their case for a Big Dance ticket a lot in case they don’t land the automatic bid from the WCC.

According to my research, a win today would secure the longest winning streak against the Waves in over 50 years (6).
Looks like we beat them 5 times in a row from '73 - '75 and 8 times in a row from'65 - '69.
Longest winning streak against the Waves of my lifetime at least.
Let's keep it going and take care of business tonight.

Five real starters out there. Keep an eye on Lars, hopefully his legs hold up and he's able to keep rebounding in the second half.

Hard to recall a season where we began with such “great expectations” and finished with such a whimper. What else can go wrong?

Without Cam’s heroics last year (should have been the league MVP IMHO), we would have finished where we are currently at in the league standings. And with Keli and/or Dom in tonight, maybe we take care of business like we did in Malibu last month. We did have Cam’s heroics last year. That was incredible to watch. We can still applaud those wins and performances. |

I know we lost, but that was a heck of an effort by the seven guys in uniform. They emptied the tank.
Does anyone have any updates on Keli or Harris or any of the other injured players? At this point all that matters is being healthy for March.

I talked to Harris’ dad briefly before the game. He has a bad bone bruise and his Dad basically said if the game was in four days, he’d be good to go. Just too uncomfortable still and didn’t want to risk making it worse.
So I’m assuming he will be playing Thursday vs Mark Few’s paid army.
Keli I unfortunately have no idea.
