liner shorter than 6-7. LMU neutral- izes the standards of height and weight with an upbeat game that borders on psychological warfare. And St. Mary's? "Well," said Egan "it's just hard to get off a good shot against St. Mary's the way they play defense." The one thing the Toreros may have working for them is the same schedule that seems to doom them. USD and St. Mary's are paired for travel in the WCAC. While USD is at Pepperdine tonight, St. Mary's is at Loyola Marymount The Gaels are at Pepperdine tomorrow night. Pepperdine has gone through a change under Asbury, who moved up from the a !ant coach's post when Jim Harrkk 1 t to become bead coach at UCLA. "Harrick was of the (John) Wooden school," said Egan. "His was efficient basketball. Asbury is of the power school. Pepperdine this season bas a lot more movement and is much more physical. We'll be giving up a lot physically." Pepperdine, which split with LMU along home-court lines last week, is led by 6-7 junior forwards Dexter Howard (17.4 pcints and 7.8 rebounds) and Tom Lewis (16.6, 5.5) and 6-4 guard Craig Davis. · Loyola M.:ryrnount may be shot out by the time USD visits. The Lions were involved in helping set five !"CAJ\ scoring records Tuesday night rn their 181-150 victory over U.S. In- ternational. Tonight they face a St. Mary's defense that allows only 54.7 points a game. USO is paced by freshman swine• man Gylan Dottin, the leading fresh- man scorer (13.0) in the WCAC. Freshman Kelvin Woods will start at forward opposite sophomore Randy Thompson, with Craig Cottrell corn- ing off the bench.

The 13-8 Wave , wh h on t · e four of the past seven seasons, have developed into a physically intimi- dating power under first-year coach Tom Asbury. Tomorrow night (7:30), the Toreros will play at 12-7 Loyola Marymount. Coach Paul Westhead's run-and-gun Lions drown opponents in a sea of pomts. Then, after hosting Pepperdine and LMU Feb. 10-11, the Toreros meet defense-minded St. Mary's (17· 2) twice in the following week. "The e would be six tough games for any team in the nation," said Egan, who will start a lmeup that mcludes two freshmen and two soph- omore 'Considering where we're at, nothing will come easy. But you have to play the game to win." At least USD won't embark on the toughest part of its schedule still searching for its first WCAC victory.
