CSUN in a run

Alonso Tacanga January 30, 2009

A 7-0 run has given the Matadors the lead back after they trailed by three. They now lead 56-52. Rodrigue Mels had four points in the run. Tremaine Townsend just had a 3-point play to complete it. It's...

The Thunderdome

Alonso Tacanga January 30, 2009

The court's midcourt logo says "Thunderdome." Shouldn't it say "Gauchos"? or something? Back to the game. It's CSUN up 45-43 with 15:54 to go.

And UCSB already hit more points than in his last game

Alonso Tacanga January 30, 2009

UCSB's last 3-pointer gave it 38 points, two more than in his last game, a 58-36 defeat at Pacific. Now they're creeping around. CSUN's still up, though, 43-40.

Second half adn Mels is starting it

Alonso Tacanga January 30, 2009

Interesting. After scoring five points early in the game, Rodrigue Mels didn't return for the rest of the first half. Now he's starting the second.

Rob Haynes update

Alonso Tacanga January 30, 2009

I've just been informed that CSUN guard Rob Haynes suffered a concussion and he's at a local hospital being looked at. He also split his lip, but will be okay. He's just being observed. Haynes went down...

And at halftime …

Alonso Tacanga January 30, 2009

... it's your Matadors up 39-33. Josh Jenkins, who is in a personal match with the fans, leads CSUN with 10 points. James Powell leads UCSB with 11. CSUN's shooting 40 percent from the field. The Gauchos...

UC vs. CSU

Alonso Tacanga January 30, 2009

The fans are yelling "UC rejects" at the Matadors. It'd be interesting to see what's the record in head-to-head matches between UC schools and CSU's. Someone got that stat? The CSU is up right now 36-31....

Someone give Somogyi the ball

Alonso Tacanga January 30, 2009

Greg Somogyi is 7-2 and is just standing in the middle of the paint asking for the ball. He just came out of the game. Maybe his feelings got hurt. And the crowd's still letting Josh Jenkins have it. CSUN'S...

Long first half

Alonso Tacanga January 30, 2009

There is still seven minutes left and we got a tight 25-24 affair at the Thunderdome. CSUN's leading. Someone just threw a piece of bread on the court. Weird. CSUN'S Matthew Wallace's gonna throw the...

Hill and Jenkins playing at the same time

Alonso Tacanga January 30, 2009

The two-point guard experiment is taking place these moments and its result is four points for UCSB and two CSUN turnovers. Matadors still up though. 23-21. Never mind. Make that UCSB up 24-23.

The reason why I always quote Josh Jenkins

Alonso Tacanga January 30, 2009

He's the best interview. He made a 3-pointer and playfulled yelled "shut up!" at the fans. He gives you really good stuff to write about. Win or lose. Will that happen tonight? We'll see. Or perhaps...

Early Rodrigue

Alonso Tacanga January 30, 2009

Rodrigue Mels has come off the bench to spark the Matadors. He's got five quick points and CSUN's off to a 15-11 lead as Willie Galick completes a 3-point play. These UCSB fans are funny. After Josh Jenkins...
