Sacred Heart (Las Vegas Classic Preliminary Round)
Wednesday, December 18th. Santa Clara, Calif.
Last Season: 9-20 (7-11 Northeast).
The second of two preliminary round games pits Santa Clara against the Sacred Heart Pioneers. The Pioneers were not very good last season, but they did have Shane Gibson, who averaged 21.6 points per game. Gibson has now graduated, and the Pioneers will need to find a new source of scoring.
