to visit 1 Gauchos By Ric Bucher Slaff Wriler The University of s~•s un- derdog status in tal!ay'sgaine at UC Santa Barbara has increased. B~t judging by the Toreros' three p~ev~- ous performances this season, with it increases the likelihood of a strong USD showing. UCSB staved off a late surge by a highly regarded Loyola Marymount to win, 95-94, on its home court Thursday nighl "I think that Loyola is consider one of the best teams on the West Coast," said USO coach Hank Egan. "But Santa Barbara had a very good team last year ... I don't think a lot of people knew that." . Loyola Marymount rose ~o nahon- al prominence last year with 28-4 record including a 119-115 Victory over Wyoming in the first r~und of the NCAA Tournament. The Lions re- captured that attention last week with a record-setting, season-opemng 164-138 victory over Azusa Paci(ic. The Toreros, meanwhile, drew no- tice on a national scope with wins last weekend over Lehigh and the University of New Mexico in the lat- ter's Lobo Classic tournament. Egan attributed the first-half struggle Wednesday in a 90-64 win over Cal Lutheran, an NAIA Division II pr~- gram, to a combination of overconfi- dence and lack of motivahon from the first two victories. "In the other two games, the at- mosphere and the opposition made " E d "I you concentrate, gan sa1 . didn't like our execution (against Cal Lutheran). I thought we had great in- tensity.

San Diego cut the lead to 53-36 midway through the second half. UC Santa Barbara's biggest lead was 27 points with less than two minutes to go. Doyle scored 19 points and Gray 13. They each cleared seven re- bounds as the Gauchos took a 44-.36 advantage. Eric McArthur added 12 points. UC Santa Barbara improved to 3-0, while USO fell to 3-1.
