Gonzaga tops in classroom, too

In a front-page column today , Editor Rob Curley/SR comments to brainiacs playing for Gonzaga:

Gonzaga’s basketball team has produced some truly staggering stats.

Oh, not the ones you read about in this newspaper’s sports section. Though those are pretty good, as well. It’s just that there are more dynamic data points that put the point in grade-point average.

The Zags are likely the smartest team to be a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament.

In today’s sabermetric world that measures minutiae, the numbers show that these Bulldogs have the Big Brains.
