Another WCC Preview...

Apparantly we made it to the semifinals of the WCC tournament last year... who knew?

You don't remember that semifinal run? That's a story I'm sticking with.

The article is also a bit slow on the uptake when it comes to Pepperdine. Kingsley Costain is apparently gone for the year--violation of University Policy.

Pepperdine itself may be gone for the year if the fires don't slow down . . .

Hoping the last sentence in the portion of the article on UP comes true.

Rounding Out the Pack: Portland made a nice run in the WCC Tournament, falling in the semifinals after finishing seventh in the conference, but three starters are gone. Sherrard Watson is the leading returning scorer, a good shooter and solid all-around player. Taishi Ito is a good point guard, and Walter Thompson also returns in the backcourt. Robin Smeulders and Luke Sikma are impact newcomers.
