SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – Playing in front of a sold-out crowd in their final regular season home game, the University of San Francisco men's basketball team (22-8, 9-6) battled the nation's top team until the final buzzer on Thursday night, but ultimately fell to No. 1/1 Gonzaga, 89-73, at War Memorial at the Sobrato Center.
IN CASE YOU MISSED IT:
- Matching each other stride for stride out of the gates, the Dons remained within one point, 9-8, early on following a made three-pointer from Patrick Tape at 17:32.
- In the minutes to follow, Gonzaga would stretch their lead to nine, 20-11, but USF answered back with a 12-3 run to knot the contest at 23 on a fast break layup from Jamaree Bouyea at the 11:53 mark.
