Two things to take away from the last week: "Saint Mary's College" and “Brock Motum”!
Saint Mary’s continued on their winning ways, winning two on the road against a decent Loyola Marymount and a big win over BYU in Providence. They remain undefeated in WCC play and are now the clear favourites to win the WCC regular season crown and will firm in the national rankings released tomorrow. Delly was at his usual consistent best scoring in double digits in both games alongside a combined 11 assists. Delly’s 7 assists in SMC’s win over Loyola Marymount moved him into third place all-time on Saint Mary's career list with 477. Steindl exploded against BYU in nailing 4/6 from long range to help kick start the Gael’s on their way to the win.
Brock Motum has been an efficient scoring weapon for the Cougars all season and racked up 18 and 9 in a road loss to kick start the Australia Day long weekend. And with fellow started Fasal Aiden out of the line-up, the scoring load fell onto Motum alone against Arizona State on the road and he almost single-handley stole them the win. Motum racked up a career-high 34 points on a sizzling 13/19 shooting to go with 8 rebounds and 3 assists.
