INJURIES
Matadors
: Josh Jenkins was in a car crash and had to have surgery to repair internal injuries. He’s out for the season.
49ers: Senior leading scorer Donovan Morris had a foot injury that kept him out of four straight games before playing 12 minutes on Wednesday against UC Irvine. He’ll likely see improved minutes against CSUN.

NOTABLE
The Matadors will be celebrating Senior Day … The 49ers’ last three wins have all been by a single point (Feb. 7 vs. Pacific, 81-80; Feb. 18 at Cal State Fullerton, 75-74; and Wednesday vs. UC Irvine, 75-74) … The Matadors and 49ers have the same conference record (9-4), but Long Beach State won the teams’ first meeting this season, 74-68, on Jan. 17 … Following this game, both the 49ers and Matadors wrap up the regular season on the road. CSUN plays at UC Davis and Pacific next week while LBSU will visit Cal Poly and UC Santa Barbara.

Side notable: Last season, on Senior Day, Braswell started his four then-seniors (Jonathan Heard, Calvin Chitwood, Jayme Miller and Rai Colston) against Cal Poly. In 2009, two of his five graduating players will be unable to suit up.
