STOCKTON - The plan was in place, and its execution had worked several times before.
But the shot that could have given the Pacific men's basketball team a thrilling overtime victory Saturday at Spanos Center never happened.
Instead, Pepperdine defeated the Tigers for the fifth consecutive time as a costly turnover with 1 second left resulted in a 65-63 West Coast Conference win for the Waves. It was the third overtime loss for Pacific this season - all at Spanos Center - after a pass from Maleke Haynes to Alec Kobre was tipped by the Waves and mishandled as time expired.
