It took a lot longer than they'd hoped but UC San Diego finally got to play its first basketball game as a Division 1 program against another Division 1 program. The Tritons hosted UC Irvine on Saturday night at RIMAC Arena.
They didn't win, but they showed they're not far away from being a threat.
The Anteaters won 79-65 but had to come from behind to do it. The Tritons scored first when redshirt freshman guard Jace Roquemore drove to the hoop for a lay-up, the first D-1 bucket in program history. UC San Diego led 28-24 at halftime but UCI shot the lights out in the 2nd half, scoring 55 points in the final 20 minutes.
