    A Top 25 ranking won't satisfy Saint Mary's this season.

    Maybe not even a berth in the NCAA tournament.

    The small Bay Area program and perennial winner under coach Randy Bennett has had more than its share of accolades almost since he arrived in 2001. Here's another the Gaels are after: the first undefeated home season.

    Rob Jones had 17 points and 10 rebounds and Matthew Dellavedova scored 13 points to lead Saint Mary's (No. 23 ESPN/USA Today, No. 24 AP) past pesky Pepperdine 61-47 on Thursday night for its eighth straight victory. The Gaels are a perfect 14-0 at home this season with only four games left at McKeon Pavilion.
