game against Georgia in the first
round of NCAA men's tournament.
Everyone who has watched many
of these knows that upsets happen.
Gonzaga is a number eight seed
while Georgia was nine. It was
expected to be a close match however
never know one way or another.
Gonzaga got off to a great start making the score 11-0. Georgia
made some turnovers early.
The Zags got off to shooting 3s
early to. On the day they shot
3s at sixty percent. At halftime
the Zags led by 21 points which
was the difference at the end
since both teams scored 41 in
the second half.
The game might have been a big
blowout however Georgia made
ten more free throws on fourteen
more shots.
Gonzaga was led by Khalif Battle
with 24 points. Braden Huff and
Nolan Hickman each had 18 while
Graham Ike had 13 with the only
ones in double figures.
This was the third game in a row
that Huff has started after coming
off the bench before then. The
Zags have been playing much
better since Huff has been starting.
The Zags play Houston who is
number one seed in their region.
It will take an upset for Gonzaga
to win on Saturday and advance
to thr sweet sixteen. Go Zags.
