SANTA CLARA, Calif. – After a career night in Saturday's victory against San Jose State, Nate Kratch was named the West Coast Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Week.

Kratch hit 13 of 15 from the field (86.7 percent), including all eight of his second half attempts and the final three of the game for the Broncos, who won for the second-straight time.

The junior scored three baskets in the final 2:21 of the game. He extended a 70-69 lead with a jumper in the lane and then added a pair of gritty layups, including the winning bucket with 48 seconds on the clock.
