The UC Irvine Anteaters ended Long Beach State's 26-game conference home game winning streak with a 46-44 victory in a contest that was marred by poor shooting by both sides. The 49ers shot 31.5% from the field while UC Irvine shot 34%. Long Beach State had only 9 turnovers in the game but recorded just 6 assists. Chris McNealy led the Anteaters with 12 points while point guard Alex Young added 11. 7'6" Mamadou Ndiaye scored four points for UC Irvine while blocking four shots. Long Beach State head coach Don Monson benched his normal five starters to begin the game because of their recent practice habits. Travis Hammonds led the 49ers with 12 points.
