MORAGA, Calif. — Mikey Lewis made seven 3-pointers and scored 31 points to help Saint Mary's beat No. 9 Gonzaga 70-59 on Saturday night, giving the Gaels a share of the West Coast Conference regular-season title with the Zags.
Joshua Dent scored 14 points and Mantas Juzenas added 12 as the Gaels (27-4, 16-2 WCC) rallied to their seventh consecutive win and 26th straight at home. It's the fourth straight year Saint Mary's has won at least a share of the conference title.
Graham Ike had 17 points for Gonzaga (28-3, 16-2) before fouling out with four minutes left.
Adam Miller scored 14 and
Tyon Grant-Foster added 13 for the Bulldogs.
It was the final regular-season game for both teams. The schools have been the most dominant teams in the conference for the past two-plus decades, combining to win or share the conference title for the past 27 seasons, with Gonzaga winning 23 under Head Coach
Mark Few.
Gonzaga had already clinched the top seed for the conference tournament, but the Gaels didn't go quietly. After trailing by seven at halftime, Saint Mary's tied it with 11 minutes left — and then pulled away.
