--The Waves had a season-low seven turnovers in the Feb. 28 game against San Francisco.

--Pepperdine's five conference wins were its most since 2005, when it won six, but it was the fewest for Tom Asbury as the Waves' coach. In his first stint (1989-94), the Waves never won fewer than eight games and never finished worse than second.

QUOTE TO NOTE
"They really don't know what a tournament is about other than what they've heard or seen on TV." -- Pepperdine coach Tom Asbury, on his team's inexperience heading into the WCC tournament.
