The men’s basketball team lost a heartbreaker on Saturday, falling 75-71 to the Saddleback Gauchos (5-5) at Pierce College. The Brahmas (2-7) came out slow in the first half, falling behind early on. The Gauchos continued to tack on points, and lead by as many as 12 points, taking advantage of Brahma turnovers and their inability to get many good shots off.

eBooks: free, useful resources for finals

Looking back at a record season
Very few teams can say that they were 30-2 during their season. Very few teams can have a bond that is not just of being a teammate but also a friend. Very few teams can say that their team is ranked the number one team in California. However, the woman’s volleyball team this year achieved just that.
Three years and still going
Any person who rides an elephant down the middle of Pierce College could be considered unique, and President Robert Garber can be called just that.
