The Gaels can now look ahead to the WCC postseason tournament with a string of impressive regular season wins under the belt. On Thursday, Saint Mary’s surged past Pepperdine early in the first half, never looking back on their way to a 78-49 victory in Firestone Fieldhouse in Malibu, California. Two nights later, the Gaels hosted Santa Clara and celebrated their seniors on senior night in the most fitting way possible: a 70-56 victory over a feisty Broncos squad.
