Jeremy Pargo was named the tournament MVP. The Bulldogs beat Clemson, Oklahoma and Davidson during the 2012 title run. Elias Harris was selected as the MVP of that tournament.

Gonzaga ended last season in the Sweet 16 with a 28-8 record. The Zags advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the 18th straight season after claiming their 19th West Coast Conference title.

Quinnipiac University will be representing the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) in the AdvoCare Invitational.
