Big West Preview: Revamped Long Beach State takes aim at another league title
This is by no means a comprehensive preview of Big West Conference basketball, but given the dearth of previews this time of year, it's something.

Long Beach State dominated the Big West last season, but an upset loss at the hands of UCSB in the Big West Conference Tournament left the 49ers out of the big dance and stuck in the little dance. However, the big four are back and all seniors and they will not let that happen again.Ummm, this should be good locker room material in the Thunderdome, and in Anaheim.
Cal Poly may give Long Beach State a run for their money, but this team is too talented to lose the Big West. With Ware, Anderson, Robinson and Phelps leading the way, it is impossible to find a more talented group of starters in the Big West.

Gauchos squeak by the 49ers 64 - 62
The UCSB Men's basketball team retained first place in the Big West Conference regular season race by edging Long Beach State 64 - 62 in the Thunderdome. The Gauchos (14 - 8, 9 - 3) were led by Jaime Serna's season-high 17 points and Will Brew's 12 points, all in the first half. Orlando Johnson chipped in 11 points, but more importantly, he assisted on eight Gaucho baskets. James Nunnally led the Gauchos with seven rebounds, followed by Greg Somogyi with six boards.

UCSB Beats LBSU 76-75 to clinch 4th Seed
March Madness is here: Gauchos Beat 49ers on Nunnally's Buzzer Beater
The UCSB Men's basketball team beat the Long Beach State 49ers 76-75 on a last-second shot by James Nunnally at the Thunderdome to clinch the 4th seed in next week's Big West Conference Tournament in Anaheim. They also receive a 1st round bye in the tournament.
Nunnally, a freshman guard, hit a 3 point basket in a wild finish, when the lead changed hands twice in 10 seconds. Nunnally scored a lay up to tie the game at 73 apiece, but Will Brew, Jr. intentionally fouled the 49ers' TJ Robinson, thinking the Gauchos were down 1. Robinson calmly sank both free throws with 6.8 seconds left. Nunnally then canned the game-winning shot with time running out, igniting a mad rush by fans onto the court. The victory sent off a dramatic farewell to three Gauchos on Senior night: Chris Devine, DJ Posley, and Nick Quick, whose Gaucho career ended earlier due to a knee injury.
Nunnally led the Gauchos with 20 points, including an amazing 15 in the final 6:54. Devine added 15 points and 5 rebounds in his final home game. Posley dished out 7 assists in his final game at the Thunderdome. Stephen Gilling led the 49ers with 23 points, including 6 from behind the 3 pt. arc, and Donovan Morris chipped in 17.
The Gauchos hope to continue their winning ways, playing in the second game of the Thursday, March 12 quarterfinal evening session of the Big West Conference Tournament at the Anaheim Convention Center. Their opponent is yet to be determined, based on Wednesday's preliminary round.
