brought the ball in play following a time out and made a pa r of passes before being trapped near the midcourt line. 1 "I tell you, to me, that wasn't a violabon," USO coach ; Jim Brovelli said. "First. I question how tight it was, and. econdly, l don't think 1t was five seconds." I "We had two called like that ma game with Gonzaga, I and I questioned those," Harrick observed. "Maybe we got the breaks back our way tonight. I was too involved to know whether it was a good call or not." It was the second turnover in a row for the Toreros, and those came on top of a missed free throw when the ball went out of bounds to Pepperdme. That USO ever had led m the second half was a credit to its reserves. The Toreros faced a 44-40 deficit five minutes into the half and had starters Gerald Jones and Dave Deppell on the bench with four fouls, but USO ac• tually began its surge then. In relief roles, Don Capener scored six pomts and Robby Roborts four durmg stints lasting about 10 minutes. Hot shooting didn't hurt either as the Toreros hit at a 63% chip (12 for 19) following halftime, Rusty Whit· march first put USO ahead m the second half, 46-45, with 11,46 to play. Pepperdine fimshed with four starters m double fig• 1 ures, but alI-league guard Bond had an off showmg with 12 points. Bill Sadler had 16 to lead the team. Wh1\marsh was high for USD with 13. Jones finished with a game-high SIX rebounds as the Toreros stayed eveR on the boards, 28-28, although Pepperdine aver- ages a nine -rebound edge over opponents this season. "I told the team that sooner or later we're going to wm of these," said Brovelli. "This can't happen to us all the time." In their previous outing, the Toreros lost to USF in dou_ble overtime.
