Good evening. It was a good night for Gonzaga in general, and 7-1 Polish center Przemek Karnowski in particular.

Karnowski (pictured above) poured in 22 points in his Gonzaga debut and five other Zags scored in double figures as GU crushed Southern Utah 103-65 in the season opener on Friday. The last time Gonzaga hit the century mark was two years ago in the season opener against Southern.

My game story can be found here. I'll be back in the a.m. with a day-after post.
