Seattle Pacific has won 96 percent of its PacWest home games over the last nine seasons, going 55-2. Central Washington managed both of the wins, and made a strong bid last week before going down in overtime, 83-82. Pavilion ticket windows open one hour prior to tip-off. In his nonchalant manner, Stone goes about the business of doing the sensational. Now, Stone's been chosen both PacWest player of the week and, with a 3.41 grade point average as a business major, has been named to the academic all-conference team for the second year in a row.
Some people collect bottle caps and some collect hubcaps.
In fact, if not for Stone, Hubbard might have been the player of the week. He continued his fine February with another 39 points last week, including 23 vs. the Saints. Hubbard is averaging 18.2 for the season, seventh in the PacWest. Stone was one of three named to the academic all-conference team this week. Johnson, the starting guard who connected on the two decisive free throws with 35 seconds left vs. Central, averages 13.1 points and leads the conference in 3-point accuracy at 56 percent.
