MORAGA, Calif. -- Slowly but surely the Saint Mary's men's basketball team is starting to capture the attention of the college basketball world.
The Gaels opened the season by winning nine of their first 10 games and captured an early lead in the West Coast Conference standings last night with a 22-point win over Bay Area rival San Francisco.
SMC looks to remain undefeated in league play tomorrow night when it travels 50 miles south to face longtime South Bay rival Santa Clara in an 8 p.m. tipoff at the Leavey Center. Tickets are available online at SantaClaraBroncos.
