After 17 years, Gonzaga Bulldogs finally got their revenge against UCLA, cementing their victory in Heartbreak City. The Bulldogs dominated the court with an 83-63 win, avenging their defeat in the 2006 Sweet 16 that had ended their season. It was clear from the start of the game that the Bulldogs were determined to come out on top. They took an early lead and never looked back, maintaining a double-digit lead for the majority of the game. Their defense was particularly impressive, holding UCLA to just 5 points in the first 10 minutes of the game. Gonzaga's star player, Drew Timme, led the way with 25 points, 4 rebounds, and 2 assists. Jalen Suggs also had a standout performance, with 20 points, 8 rebounds, and 2 assists.
But it was truly a team effort, with every player on the court contributing to the win. The victory was especially sweet for Gonzaga fans, who had waited over a decade to see their team get revenge against UCLA. The 2006 defeat had been a heartbreaker, but the Bulldogs showed that they had learned from that experience and were ready to come out on top this time around. The win puts Gonzaga in the NCAA Championship game, where they will face off against Baylor.
It promises to be an exciting matchup, and Gonzaga will be looking to cement their status as one of the best teams in college basketball history with a victory.
