The Gonzaga Women are on a roll, winning 6 straight and 8 of 10. A huge weekend from Yvonne Ejim leaves the ladies tied for a share of the conference lead, and young gun Allie Turner (especially Turner) looks to continue her hot shooting streak against the Waves of Pepperdine this week. 

The Gonzaga men are tied for 2nd in the WCC standings. 

Gonzaga welcomed the Washington State Cougars back to the Kennel in style with fantastic performances from Nolan Hickman and Graham Ike. All good vibes from this one folks!

The ladies are on a roll (especially Turner) and face off with the Pilots again this week.

All that, and we welcome our famed visitor from the East of Washington, Karno-ac the Magnificent!

The ladies snap a 4 game skid and while they're at-large chances appear cooked, their hot shooting lately is a thing of beauty.
