TIGER TIDBITS

• Leonard Perry is the 23rd head coach in Pacific men's basketball history. This is his first season as the Tigers' head coach, following the last five seasons as the Tigers' associate head coach. Perry has head coaching experience as he was the head coach for five seasons at the University of Idaho. He faced Hawaii twice in his final season as the Vandals' head coaching losing both matchups.
• With the win on Thursday, Perry became the fifth coach in a row to pick up his first win within his first two games as the Tigers' head coach.
• With a win on Saturday, Pacific would start the season with a 2-1 mark for a fourth-straight year.
• With a strong influx of newcomers, 103 of 150 points (68.7%) have came from Pacific newcomers.
• In Thursday's win over Hawaii Hilo, Luke Advalovic hit five 3-pointers - the most by a Pacific player since Jeremiah Bailey knocked down six in last year's matchup against BYU. The Northern Arizona transfer was a three-year team leader with 39 in 2020-2, 52 in 2019-20, 73 in 2018-19 for the Lumberjacks. He left NAU sixth in program history in 3-pointers made (164) and in 3-point percentage (.453).
• This marks the second trip in three years for Pacific men's basketball to the 50th state. The Tigers came to Hawaii in 2019-20 for the Outrigger Resorts Rainbow Classic. Pacific went 1-2 on that trip with a win over Florida A&M, losing to South Dakota and host Hawaii. 
• The Tigers return four letterwinners from its 2020-21 squad - 46.8% of its scoring and rebounding. The top returning scorer for Pacific is Jeremiah Bailey, who averaged 11.4 ppg (second on the team) and the top returning rebounder is Jordan Bell, who averaged a team-best 6.9 rpg.
• Jeremiah Bailey, who wears #13, was featured on NCAA.com as they ranked the best current men's college basketball player for every jersey number. 
• Pacific will appear twice on national television as the matchup at pre-season No. 1 Gonzaga on Feb. 10 in the McCarthey Athletic Center was selected as one of the 12 games in the CBS Sports Network package with the West Coast Conference. The other contest is when the Tigers host BYU on Saturday, Jan. 29 in the Alex G. Spanos Center, which will be televised live on ESPNU.
• From the Windy City to Stockton - Assistant Coach Justin Brown along with newcomers Khaleb Wilson-Rouse and Greg Outlaw are originally from Chicago, Illinois. 
• Pacific was selected eighth in the West Coast Conference preseason poll of the league's 10 head coaches. At the top of the preseason poll is Gonzaga, who secured nine of the 10 first place votes. BYU, who received the other vote, was second followed by Saint Mary's. Gonzaga, BYU, Santa Clara and San Francisco each landed two players on the preseason All-WCC Team.
