Golden Eagles Fall to Fresno Pacific 68-59

Connor Gleason Post Career High 14 Points

Box Score The CUI men's basketball team wrapped up their northern California trip Monday night against Fresno Pacific University. 

Sophomore guard Connor Gleason went for a career high 14 points against the Sunbirds. The Mission Viejo native kept finding holes in the Fresno Pacific defense while shooting 5 for 8 from the field. Freshman standout Jackson Tucker also dropped 14 points on the night. The Bakersfield native had a solid all-around game grabbing five rebounds and a steal to go along with his 14 points. 

Junior guard Alpha Okoli was constantly putting pressure on the Sunbirds defense by driving the ball in the paint with force. This led to Okoli going a perfect 7 for 7 from the charity stripe. Fresh off his career high 33 points Saturday night, sophomore guard Kobe Sanders dished out a game high five assists. 

Next on tap for the Golden Eagles is trip down the I-5 freeway for a date with Point Loma Saturday Feb. 11 at 4 p.m.
