After closing the non-conference slate with a perfect 7-0 home record but falling in the WCC opener, San Francisco looks to start a new home streak Monday. The Dons, 9-3 on the year, look for their first WCC win against long-time foe Saint Mary's in their final contest of the calendar year.

Zhane Dikes is averaging 10.8 points and 6.6 rebounds for the Dons, both figures second to Proctor. Taj Winston adds 10.9 points, 5.6 rebounds and a team-high 2.3 steals for USF. 

With a renewed intensity on defense, the Dons stand in first in field goal percentage defense (.359) and the Dons have been holding opponents to an average of 59.2 points per game, good for third in the conference. USF's field goal percentage defense figure ranks 55th in the nation.
