The Gonzaga Bulldogs secured a dominant victory over the LMU Lions, showcasing their best performance in recent weeks. The Bulldogs' strong defense and balanced scoring contributed to their success.
Led by their two seniors, the Bulldogs (12-4, 3-0 WCC) put together their most complete performance of the last eight days in a thorough beatdown over the Lions (9-7, 1-3 WCC). In addition to making 52.8% of their attempts from the field, the Zags held LMU to just 38.2% and scored 17 points off 14 turnovers. 'Every game kind of has a life of its own and the opponents are different, but this was definitely a complete performance,' Gonzaga head coach Mark Few said after the game.
'Our defense was rock solid against a team that came in very confident. They played great against Oregon State. So I thought we did a great job there and stayed with it through the second half.''He was forceful ... he was just being Graham. I don't think it was out of body or anything, he was just really solid. I told him that, we get that every night that's such an advantage for us to get that out of that 5-spot and defensively, he was terrific too. He was active and rebounding and contesting shots. So it's just been hard, you get inconsistent games, or sometimes inconsistent spurts in these games, and that's kind of been dogging us a little bit. So I was really happy for him.''His defense, where he was actively making plays, not getting lost was big a part of those points. I think he's in a good place; we got to keep him there. Again, it's been hard. Sometimes you get one up and one down.''I thought everybody got in there and really contributed. Dusty had a solid game. Nolan was really, really solid with what we wanted to do with our core defense and how we wanted to go downhill against their ball screens. Ryan , I mean, to deal with that physicality and that type of pressure, and have to guard Johnson on the other end and end with 11 and two is pretty, pretty spectacular.'NCAA to discuss 5th year of eligibility for all sports in 202
