COLLEGE BASKETBALL / SOUTHLAND ROUNDUP

Weber State 95, Cal State Northridge 78--The Matadors (16-11, 8-7) were pushed around for easy shots and offensive rebounds in a loss to the Wildcats (21-7, 12-3) before 5,238 at Ogden, Utah.

The loss was the second-worst in Northridge’s three seasons in the Big Sky, but more startling was the absence of junior forwards Greg Minor and Rico Harris, left at home for what Matador coaches called conduct detrimental to the team.

Neither will play against Cal State Sacramento on Saturday.

Derrick Higgins of Northridge led all scorers with 19 points.

Harold Arceneaux and Eddie Gill each scored 17 for Weber State, which emptied the bench with about three minutes to play.
