Pacific hosts San Diego in the final game of 2015 as the Toreros come to Stockton to kick off a home weekend of action for the Tigers. The series between the two teams is one of the youngest for the Tigers in program history having played just 14 times with Pacific holding an 8-6 edge on the Toreros. The two sides have split the season series in the first two years of Pacific in the WCC with each team holding serve on their home court. The Tigers took a 59-57 win over the Toreros in Stockton last season on Jan. 17, while San Diego won the last meeting, 68-48, on Feb. 12 in San Diego. Interim Head Coach Mike Burns spent the last seven seasons on the bench of the Toreros before coming to Pacific in June.
