Broncos Complete Men's Hoops Exhibition Season
Nov. 12, 2001
SANTA CLARA, Calif. - The Santa Clara University men's basketball team dropped an 86-64 decision to Korabel, a professional club team from Ukraine, in its final exhibition contest of the 2001-2002 preseason Monday night at the Leavey Center.
Korabel shot 61.7 percent from the field for the game, including a 13-of-27 effort from behind the three-point line. Guard Oleksandr Rayevskyy led the Ukrainian team in scoring with 35 points on 12-of-16 shooting from the field, including a 5-for-8 effort from the three-point arc. It was the second-straight impressive offensive game for Rayevskyy after he torched San Jose State for 37 points the previous night.
Forward Steve Ross led the Broncos in scoring with 12 points, while Justin Holbrook chipped-in 10 as the only other Santa Clara player in double figures. Dick Davey substituted liberally for the second-straight exhibition game with 11 of the 13 Broncos seeing double-figures in minutes played. Senior center David Emslie missed his second-straight game due to a back injury.
The Broncos open their regular-season Saturday at home against Pacific. The game is scheduled to tipoff at 7:30 p.m. at the Leavey Center.
