EARNIE GRAFTON / Union-Tribune Toreros center Gyno Pomare, making his first appearance of the season, looks for a shot against Nevada's Dario Hunt. Rob Jones scored 23 points and Pomare added 12 in his first game to lead the University of San Diego to a 65-51 win over Nevada on Tuesday night before a lively crowd at the Jenny Craig Pavilion.

Jones, a sophomore small forward, was nearly perfect for San Diego (1-1), which led the entire game. Jones hit 10 of 12 shots, including two to start the second half as the Toreros increased their 10-point halftime lead to a 43-27.

Pomare, who wasn't in the starting lineup, was making his first appearance after being suspended for the season opener last weekend at UNLV for undisclosed team violations.

Nevada (1-1), the perennial WAC championship, shot 32.7 percent from the field, including 24.1 percent in the second half as the Wolf Pack fell behind by as many as 25 points.

Joey Shaw led Nevada with 16 points and Malik Cooke had 13. Freshman Luke Babbitt, who had 20 points and 12 rebounds in his college debut, was held to three points.
