Match Info

The Saint Mary's Gaels cruised to an 86-67 victory over the Santa Clara Broncos in a West Coast Conference rivalry game on February 26, 2026. Saint Mary's methodical offense and disciplined defense were too much for Santa Clara, resulting in a comfortable home win for the Gaels. Saint Mary's established control early with their efficient half-court sets and never looked back, building a double-digit lead by halftime. Santa Clara attempted to speed up the game but was consistently thwarted by the Gaels' stout interior defense and rebounding. A key focus was the play of Saint Mary's frontcourt, which outmuscled Santa Clara and scored at will in the paint. This result keeps Saint Mary's in the hunt for a WCC title behind Gonzaga, while Santa Clara's hopes for a top-three finish take a hit. The Saint Mary's coach was pleased with his team's focus and execution of the scouting report. The Santa Clara coach acknowledged the difficulty of matching Saint Mary's physicality and system. The starting lineups saw Saint Mary's experienced core outplay a younger Santa Clara squad.
