No. 2 Gonzaga wins 17th WCC title with 84-66 win over Gaels | |
LAS VEGAS (AP) Gonzaga stumbled in last year's West Coast Conference tournament, losing to rival Saint Mary's in the title game after dominating the regular season. The Zags won another regular-season title this year with a new group of players and again found themselves in a championship-game fight with the Gaels. Instead of buckling under the pressure, Gonzaga pushed back with a dominating second half to reclaim the title and, potentially, a No. 1 NCAA Tournament seed. MORE | |
