Here is what the a poster posted about St. Bonnies on a UCLA board:

.... and a complete contrast to the Arizona team we just played. Here is a little info on them.
They only have two players on their roster over 6'6 and they aren't major scorers or rebounders. One is a 6'10, 245 lb soph who averages under 5 points and only 3 boards a game and the other is a 6'8, 205 lb soph who averages 5 points and 2.8 boards a game.
But they do have some very good and experienced guards who can put the ball in the hoop--- 2 are seniors (Adams and Mobley) and 1 is a junior (Stockard). As an example of their scoring ability, the three of them combined for 96 points in their 117 to 113 OT win over Davidson on Feb 27th.
Adams and Mobley are both around 6'3 and average 19.8 and 18.5 points respectively and Stockard is a 6'6 wing/guard who averages almost 13 a game. The three of them are good three-point and free throw shooters averaging 46%, 38% and 37% from t[he beyond the arc and 86%, 85% and 75% from the ft line.
They finished second in their conference at 14-4 and 25-7 overall. It took a hot shooting Davidson team (made 16 threes)in the Atlantic 10 tournament semi-finals to end their 13 game winning streak defeating them 82 to 70.
UCLA will certainly have the height advantage but will still have to do a good job guarding these three perimeter players. They may be somewhat similar in style of play to ASU in the PAC 12 conference.
