Paul Eberhardt picked up a milestone win in his homecoming at a school where he spent 10 years of his decorated basketball coaching career.

Eberhardt recorded his 100th victory in the Pac West Conference as the Langara Falcons rolled to a 90-63 win over Capilano University. He had coached 10 years (19992009) at the North Vancouver campus before taking a break from the collegiate men's level.

"It was kind of weird coaching from the visiting bench," commented Eberhardt. "It was a great night with lots of my ex-Cap players in attendance. Picking up win number 100 is pretty exciting but all it really means is that I am getting old."

Burnett grad Elliott Mason had a productive night for the Falcons with 12 points and seven rebounds. Brody Greig (McMath) flirted with a triple double, finishing with eight points, nine rebounds and eight assists. Jeff Chu (McMath) added 10 points.

The Falcons are currently ranked third in the country with a 14-1 overall record. They host Camosun on Friday (8 p.m.) and then face the second place VIU Mariners (12-3) on Saturday at 3 p.m.
