UC Davis-UCLA: First Half

This game is pretty slow to start, but the announcement of Rick Neuheisel as head coach got a nice ovation with seven minutes to go in the first half.

>> On the court, the highlight has been a flying right hand facial applied by Josh Shipp flying down the middle of the lane on a fast break with 8:20 to go.

>> The Bruins lead 30-19 with 2:42 to play in the half, shooting only 44.8% from the field. Davis is shooting 61.5% from the floor, however.

>> At the half, UCLA leads, 37-24, shooting 45.7% from the field. Davis shot 66.7% (holy cow!), but had only 15 shots in the first half, compared to 35 for the Bruins. UCLA led in rebounds, 16-8 and the Bruins forced 12 turnovers compared to just five on offense.

>> Luc Richard Mbah A Moute and Darren Collison led the Bruins in scoring with 8 each. The Aggies were led by guard Mark Payne with 7.
