The Ventura College men's basketball team kept pace in the Western State Conference title chase on Saturday with a key 76-69 overtime victory at Allan Hancock College. Vondel Faniel played a key role down the stretch with big shots and strong defensive rebounds to help bring home the win. In the game, he posted a double-double of 15 points on 7-10 shooting and 11 rebounds, and the 6-foot-6-inch freshman from Palmdale is this week's VC Pirate Student Athlete of the Week sponsored by Pacific Aire Heating and Cooling.
