In which we celebrate another victory over our hated rivals from Moraga. Graham Ike takes any and all frustration out on Harry Wessels, smiting his ruin upon the court and dunking on his face.

We saw much we liked, and some we didn't, and complain entirely too much about solid win over a solid opponent.

The ladies get a couple of wins, and the men prepare for a couple of road cupcakes this week.

The Gonzaga men continue to hold the line in the WCC despite the absence of their champion centers, Graham Ike and Braden Huff. It's been especially difficult considering their jump shots have abandoned them entirely.

It is about to get even tougher, because the hated Gaels of Saint Mary's are coming to town, and baby, they mean business. We'll spend some time letting the hate flow through us before providing some things to watch out for on Saturday.

If you want to skip ahead to the Saint Mary's Preview, it starts at about 45 minutes in. I know! That's too long, which is why I'm letting you know now.

Stick around until the end to hear about a time so long ago that Pepperdine was Gonzaga's chief WCC rival!
