Zags power past Bruins, into Elite Eight
I caught Mark Few returning from post-game media session in a nearly empty hallway after Gonzaga's 74-62 win over UCLA and asked him a couple of questions before a few more reporters arrived. Few explained what he imparted during a timeout when the Bruins had cut GU's lead to one early in the second half.
Few told the Zags to tighten up their ball-screen coverage, it had slipped during the Bruins' rally. And he told the Zags to feed it inside to Przemek Karnowski.
"We liked that (Karnowski) matchup so I was trying to call that number," Few said. "And Domas (Sabonis) had a nice stretch there."
GU's big men powered the victory and our S-R coverage: My game story, John Blanchette's column, Colin Mulvany's picture story and a sidebar with notes from Meehan/Thorpe.
