March 5, 2006 — Gonzaga 96, San Diego 92 (OT)

J.P. Batista becomes GU’s Willis Reed, coming back from a first-half knee sprain when the Zags blow a 10-point halftime lead in his absence. He scores 21 points and grabs 13 rebounds in between breaks on an exercise bike, but the Bulldogs still have to overcome a buzzer-beating layup by Cory Belzer that sends the game into overtime.
