The Gonzaga Bulldogs women’s basketball team was picked to finish first in the West Coast Conference, narrowly beating out the BYU Cougars.
The Zags, which have won 14 of the last 15 WCC titles, received seven first place votes, enough to push past BYU, which received three first place votes.
- 1) Gonzaga (7), 78
- 2) BYU (3), 75
- 3) Pacific, 61
- 4) Saint Mary’s, 59
- 5) Santa Clara, 40
- 6) Loyola Marymount, 39
- 6) Pepperdine, 39

The Zags lost quite a bit from last year’s NCAA Tournament squad, but the hype is there for the upcoming season.
