Pacific senior David Doubley (Oakland, CA/Skyline College) fulfulled many of the duties of a point guard in two road victories last week – run the offense, distribute the ball and shoot an efficient percentage from the field. His efforts helped the Tigers extend their winning streak to 10 games and garnered him Big West Player of the Week honors.
The 6-1 playmaker averaged 16.5 points, 5.5 assists and 1.5 steals per game as the Tigers handed Cal Poly (90-78) and UC Santa Barbara (58-43) a pair of double-digit defeats. Doubley also shot a sizzling .667 (12-of-18) from the field, with only one of his 12 makes being a layup.
Doubley was second on the team with 17 points against Cal Poly. He accounted for 12 of those points in the second half. He added a team-high six assists and three steals while popping 6-of-10 shots from the field. Against the Gauchos, Doubley set the pace early as he scored 13 of Pacific’s 30 points in the first half. He handed out five assists and registered his second blocked shot of the roadtrip to complete a strong effort at the Thunderdome, where UCSB had won six straight on its home floor. Doubley made 6-of-8 field goal attempts in the game. He finished the week a perfect 6-of-6 from the free throw line.
