The 19th-ranked Gonzaga Bulldogs continued their dominance of the conference against Pepperdine, winning 77-63 in Malibu, California.
The Zags kept the Waves at an arm’s length distance with an 8-point lead after the first quarter and as many as 18 points in the third quarter. They did this by converting on 52% of their possessions and holding the Waves to just .94 points per possession.
Pepperdine simply had no answer for Gonzaga’s perimeter scoring. Teams have to know at this point that you simply can’t give Kaylynn Truong any space on the perimeter. Truong made 6 of Gonzaga’s 8 threes.
