January 14, 2006

Complete Box Score

SEATTLE (Jan. 14) ­ Behind the hot shooting of Dustin Bremerman and Tony Binetti, 4th-ranked Seattle Pacific University cruised to its eighth win in a row, 93-66 over Alaska Fairbanks in a Great Northwest Athletic Conference men's basketball game at Brougham Pavilion Saturday night.

Converting 10 of 16 three-pointers, the Falcons (5-0, 13-1) shot 55 percent overall (34-62) and were never threatened after a 16-3 blitz early in the second half put them up by 23.

Bremerman (Jr., 6-4, Yakima, Wa./Eisenhower) scored 12 of his 17 points in the opening half and Binetti (Sr., 6-1, Enumclaw, Wa.) had 13 of his game-high 20 after halftime. Together, the twosome made 15 of 22 shots from the floor, including 4-6 treys.

Mike Bushmaker (Sr., 6-7, Yakima, Wa./Eisenhower) came off the bench for 15 and Chad Williams (Sr., 6-8, Burlington, Wa.) had 14 points. Drew Matzen (Jr., 6-4, Bothell, Wa./Lynnwood) added all 11 of his in the first half.

Alaska Fairbanks, which stayed with SPU for the first 15 minutes, was led by Andrew Smith's 19 points. The Nanooks (3-3, 10-5) cooled to just 33 percent shooting after intermission and made 39 percent (25-65) for the game.

Consecutive three-pointers by Bremerman, Williams and Matzen (twice) pushed Seattle Pacific to a 44-28 advantage late in the first half. Binetti scored seven of the points in the second-half burst which served as the knockout blow to UAF.

The Falcons remain unbeaten against NCAA Division II opposition. They have shot 55 percent or better in each of the last five games.

SPU visits Central Washington Thursday night before traveling to No. 2 Western Washington next Saturday.
