Pilots Topple 12th-Ranked Gonzaga to Advance to the WCC Title Game

LAS VEGAS, Nev. --- In a game that Gonzaga led by 20 in the first quarter, the Pilots and No. 12 Bulldogs battled until the end, and it was sophomore Haylee Andrews who hit the game-winning shot with three seconds left to give Portland a dramatic 70-69 win and secure a spot in tomorrow's West Coast Conference Championship game at the Orleans Arena. Portland will be making its first appearance in the WCC title game since 1997 after their semifinal win on Monday.

The Bulldogs opened up the game on fire from the field, and they built a 20-point lead in the first quarter.
