Saint Mary's wraps up its Southern California swing with a trip to Malibu and Pepperdine. Thanks to the TheW.tv, we're able to bring you a live stream of this edition of the WCC Game of the Week. The web stream will be blacked out in the broadcast areas of ROOT Sports (Northwest and Rocky Mountain), Time Warner Cable SportsNet and CSN California. If you're in those areas, you can catch the game live on TV.
Saint Mary's comes into this game in an unfamiliar place, fourth. The Gaels ran out to the best start in program history, but have stumbled a bit in conference play. Right now, they're just one game in the loss column ahead of Pepperdine.
Pepperdine is also in an unfamiliar place, the top half of the conference standings. The Waves were the surprise team in the first half of the conference season. Back on January 16th the Waves hosted the Zags with first place on the line. It didn't go too well for Marty Wilson's bunch, and they've gone just 3-2 since.
If you're looking for a game featuring two offensive-minded teams, this one is for you. Both Saint Mary's and Pepperdine average over 70 points per game.
