CLEVELAND — Back in the second round of the NCAA Tournament for the third time in four year, the Saint Mary's Gaels (29-6) squared off with the second seeded Alabama Crimson Tide (27-8) with a trip to the Sweet 16 on the line. Known as the best scoring offense in college basketball, the Gaels were able to hold Alabama 11 points below their season average, but a sluggish offensive first half prevented Saint Mary's from completing their second double-digit comeback of the tournament, eventually falling 80-66. The historic 2024-25 season has now come to an end, with the Gaels holding an impressive 29-6 record, the second most wins in a single season in program history.
