USD: Means scores career-high 26 in r ~------.,-------------- ........ --- - - 68-66 loss to Fullerton on Dec. 8.

"Factoring in the competition, I thought we played better than we did agamst Santa Barbara (a 78-56 loss) and as good as we did against Fuller- ton," Egan said. With Means' scoring burst provid- ing the main thrust, USO opened a 46-22 lead at halftime and coasted home despite being outscored, 44-40, in the second hall. The Toreros led, 80-50, with 4-20 left before Seattle Pacific managed a 16-6 run against USD's reserves.

Means seven three-point field goals was one short of the school and West Coast Athletic Conference record set by Mark Manor on Feb. 21, 1987, against Portland. For Means, who entered the game averaging 8.6 points, it was the hot- test shootmg hand he could remem- ber havmg since an 18-point second- half against Nevada-Reno early in the 1986-87 season "A co tple of times I wouldn't have taken the shots 1 did if I hadn't had uch a hot hand,"' Means said. The 6-foot-2 Mean hadn't missed a start since the first game of the '86- 87 seaso" his sophomore year, until he sat out the first minute of USD's

"l wasn't benching Danny as much as I was trymg to get (fellow senior guard) Efrem Leonard off the mark," Egan aid. "1 thought Danny earned his starting job bac in the Fullerton game. •·obvious1y, he shot the ball very well tomght. He has been more ag- gressive shooting in practice this week." Means, who played 25 minutes overall and exited with 8:54 remam- ing, was Joined in double figures by Craig Cottrell (16) and Gylan Dottin (13). Cottrell had a team-high seven rebounds, live offensive. USO out-re- bounded Seattle Pacific, 43-39. The Tor~ros shot 54 percent (34-of- 63), their t t figure this season.

Continued from H-1 in control virtually all the way. USO jumped to an 11-2 advantage in the first 304 and led, 14-5, when Means turned into a one-man firing squad. Means dropped in five three- pointers and accounted for all 18 USO points as the 14-5 lead became 32-13 in a span of 620. He hit from all areas of the three-point perimeter in a 6-for-6 streak and had 21 points by halftime. Means' previous scoring high was 22 against St. Mary's last season. "I've been shooting with more con- fidence and looking for my hot more lately," Means said. "I hadn't been getting set and ready to shoot like I should have. We've been having more
