UC SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - A sloppy and sluggish first half doomed UCSB as they were routed by UC Davis 80-59 in the final home game of the season.

The Gauchos trailed at half 36-23 as they fell to 19-10 on the year and 12-7 in the Big West.

UCSB is now tied for third with Hawai'i and those two meet on Saturday in Manoa.

The game also marked the end for George Eskin as public address announcer for the UCSB women's games.

Eskin, a retired Santa Barbara County Superior Court Judge, has been behind the microphone for 30 years at UCSB, all on a volunteer basis.
