Gonzaga and Washington State Men Both Win

Gonzaga won easily beating San
Fransisco Dons 80-59.

The Zags shot 56.8 from the field.
Over half their points were made 
Inside with 46. On the other hand
the Dons shot 36.7 percent from
the field. 

It will be important that the Zags 
continue hitting well inside. When 
they get to the NCAA tournament 
they will need to shoot better from
the 3 point line especially if they 
make it to the later rounds.

The Zags went most of the way
with their starters with four of
the five scoring in double figures.
Another key to their success.
In fact the four combined for
59 points exactly what the Dons
scored.

The Zags have three games 
remaining on the regular season
They are at home against Pacific 
ln Saturday.  Go Zags!

The Washington State Cougars 
beat Pacific at home  87-70.
Going by their records this
would be an upset but it isn't 
never easy to win on the road.

The first half was where more points
were scored with the Cougars led
51-40. The  Cougars shot 56.7
from the field. The difference though
they made 50 percent from outside
the three point line going 14 of 28.
Pacific made  8 of 21. 
 
Rihards Vavers led the  Cougars with
21 points with four in double figures.
The Cougars will be home Saturday 
taking on St. Mary's which won't be 
an easy task.  Whether the Cougars
win or not they will have to play well.

The Cougars have had a tough season 
so they will need to play well in the
West Coast Conference tournament.
In fact to make the NCAA tournament 
they will need to win that tournament.
Go Cougars!

With the week off the Washington 
Huskies will play Maryland on the 
road. This is a winnable game though 
never easy on the road especially 
in the Big Ten. Every game remaining 
is important to win. Injuries have 
kept the Huskies from having a 
successful season. The could 
make the NCAA tournament however 
it will be a challenge. Go Dawgs!
