    STOCKTON —The much-anticipated return of 7-foot center Sami Eleraky to the Pacific men's basketball team didn't quite produce enough firepower for the Tigers in a West Coast Conference loss to BYU on Saturday at Spanos Center.
    The Cougars defeated the Tigers 81-67 with help from a 12-0 spurt midway through the second half, snapping a 43-43 tie.
