The Santa Clara Broncos and Loyola Marymount Lions play in the WCC Tournament. Friday's meeting is the first this season between the two teams.
The result gives Gonzaga (22-8, 13-4) a two-game cushion on Santa Clara (19-11, 11-6) in the West Coast Conference standings, now guaranteeing the Zags won’t finish any worse than third place. It was GU’s first Quad 1 win since a mid-November victory over San Diego State at the Viejas Center, snapping a six-game skid in such scenarios.
STOCKTON, Calif. -- Christoph Tilly's 21 points helped Santa Clara defeat Pacific 97-66 in the regular season finale on Saturday.
