STOCKTON, Calif. – In the final game of the 2025-26 regular season, the Pacific men's basketball program hosts San Francisco at 3 p.m. Saturday in a game televised on the CBS Sports Network at the Alex G. Spanos Center.
 
Saturday marks Senior Day for the Tigers (17-13, 9-8 WCC), who will honor six student-athletes before the game. It includes Jaden Clayton, KC Ibekwe, Isaac Jack, Elias Ralph, Justin Rochelin and TJ Wainwright.
 
Pacific sits in fifth-place in the West Coast Conference standings and can move up to fourth with a win over San Francisco (15-15, 7-10 WCC) and an Oregon State (16-14, 9-8 WCC) loss at Santa Clara (23-7, 14-3 WCC). The No. 3-4 seeds will earn a bye to the fourth round / quarterfinals of the WCC Tournament on Sunday, March 8. The furthest the Tigers could possibly drop Saturday is the seventh-seed.
 
The Tigers are 11-2 at home this season. The .846 home winning percentage is their highest since 2004-05 when the team went 12-1 (.923).
 
Pacific is looking to avenge an 87-82 defeat to the Dons in the first meeting this season on the road where Ralph led the offense with 23 points and was 4-of-6 from long range.
 
Ralph has netted 982 points in two seasons at Pacific. He leads the team in both scoring (16.4 ppg) and rebounding (6.7 rpg) and has 18 double-doubles in two seasons. Ralph ranks top-five in the WCC in scoring, rebounding, field goal percentage, free throw percentage and minutes.
 
Clayton is up to 185 assists this season and is chasing the single-season school record of 190 set last season by Lamar Washington. Clayton has scored 993 career points in four Division I seasons. He ranks 22nd in the country and second in the WCC in assists per game with 6.2. Since the beginning of January, Clayton has had eight games with two or fewer turnovers.
 
Wainwright averages in double-figures with 13.6 points per game and is shooting .401 from long range and .930 from the free throw line. He's shooting .438 from beyond-the-arc in conference.
 
In conference games, Rochelin is averaging 11.5 points and 6.9 rebounds per game while shooting .468 from three-point range.
 
The Dons have lost five of their last six and are coming off a tough home weekend where they fell to Gonzaga 80-59 and Santa Clara 94-73. Ryan Beasley scores 13.8 points per game but was held to eight points in the first meeting against the Tigers. David Fuchs is second on the team in scoring with 11.7 points per game and went off for 30 points against Pacific.
 
In the current NCAA NET Rankings, Pacific is No. 109 out of 365, while the Dons are No. 127. Since the NCAA NET Rankings came out in 2019-20, Pacific's highest ever finish was No. 110 in 2019-20.
