SCU was 12-8 last year and 20-13 the year before. They tend to beat really weak, technically D-1 schools, then get stomped by Pac-12 schools (lost to USC at USC last year 86-63, lost to Gonzaga 104-54). Stanford beat SCU at Stanford last year, 82-64.
Broncos return their top three scorers in Vrankic, Williams & Justice. Jaden Bediako was an all-conference freshman center at 6'10" but faded as a sophomore last year. He was the second highest ranked recruit in Canada. Jordan Williams shoots 43% from 3 pt range off the bench. Two newcomers, graduate transfer JT Pipes who had 83 starts at Wisconsin-Green Bay -- he scored 14.5 points and shot 40.7% from 3 pt range at UW-GB. Parker Braun played 44 games at Missouri, and sat out last season. Eligible this year. They added four frosh, only one of whom played against Fullerton State, Carlos Stewart from Louisiana, a good PG.
Against Fullerton, Vrankic (6'9" PF) scored 29 w/8 rebs., jalen Williams had 16, Justice had 14, Pipes had 10. Vrnakic had 5 steals and 5 assists, both led the team.
It's a short team. J. Williams and Pipes are about 6'1", transfer Braun is a 6'10" forward, Vrankic is 6'9" and Justice is 6'7". No idea what happened to Bediako, the 6'10" former all-WCC frosh...he played only 7 minutes against Fullerton. SCU is also a bad rebounding team. Fullerton outrebounded them 34-24.
SCU didn't turn the ball over much (8) and had 19 assists. SCU shoots pretty well, 57% on FGs, and 11/13 from the line.
If you want to go to the game, tickets are $15.00.
