UCSB blows out Sonoma State in exhibition opener
The UCSB Men's basketball team crushed Sonoma State 101 - 64 in a season-opening exhibition game. Orlando Johnson paced five Gauchos in double figures with 21 points, hitting all three of his 3-point field goals. Other players in double figure point totals included James Nunnally with 13, and Jon Pastorek, James Powell, and Lucas Devenny with ten each.
Powell and Devenny led the Gauchos in rebounding with six each. Other categorical statistical leaders were Jordan Weiner with six assists, Johnson with three blocked shots, and Will Brew with five steals.
The Gauchos went on a 25-2 run in the first half, breaking open a tight game up until that point against the out-manned Seawolves. By halftime, the Gauchos had opened up a lead of 53 - 28. The Seawolves were led by Sterling Arterberry and Mike Nelson with eight points each.
The depth of the Gaucho squad helped the victors in their romp, as expected starters Justin Joyner (ankle) and Jaime Serna (bicep) sat out the exhibition due to injuries. Serna is due back in action next week, while Joyner is expected to return the following week.
The regular season begins next Saturday against Cal.-State, Los Angeles at the Thunderdome, November 14 at 7 pm. Game time may change on further notice. See sidebar for ticket information.

Gauchos vs. Sonoma State in season opener
The UCSB Men's basketball team opens up their season with an exhibition game against Sonoma State in the Thunderdome this Saturday, November 7 at 3 pm. The Sonoma State Seawolves are a Div. II program in the California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA).
The Seawolves are led by a pair of returnee guards, 6'2" junior Ben Washington and 6'4" senior Keith Garner, who averaged 10.9 and 7.3 points a game last year, respectively. Washington also led the team with 81 assists and 39 steals last season.
The Gauchos return a core nucleus of letterwinners, and also add a crop of newcomers expected to make an immediate impact. Experienced returnees on the perimeter include Justin Joyner (out last year with a broken wrist), James Powell, James Nunnally, Will Brew, Paul Roemer and Jordan Weiner. Freshman Chris Brew and transferee Orlando Johnson join an already deep backcourt.
Jaime Serna, Greg Somogyi, and Sam Phippen return in the frontcourt, joined by transferee Jon Pastorek and freshman Lucas Devenny.
The Gauchos appear deep this year so expect the coaches to experiment with multiple line-ups during the game. Depending on the pace of the game, walk-ons Seth Kamphoefner, Brad Lewis, Christian Peterson, and Jacob Mercer could also see minutes.
