Sorry for the delay, but for the first time this season I went home to write instead of staying at the arena (or the Kennel). Anyway, here’s a link to my game story and the S-R photo gallery from GU’s 62-58 loss to Memphis, which would appear to leave the Zags’ with one avenue to make the NCAA Tournament — win the WCC Tournament.

John Blanchette and I had a chance to visit with ex-Zag Matt Bouldin, who was suspended from his pro team in Greece after testing positive for a banned substance. Bouldin, who attended Saturday’s game, spoke about the ordeal at length and you can read his side of the story in tomorrow’s S-R. I’ll post a link in the morning with my day-after post.
