March Madness 2022: Looking back through Gonzaga’s seven-straight Sweet 16 trips

When the Gonzaga Bulldogs defeated the Memphis Tigers on Saturday, the Zags moved onto the Sweet 16 for the seventh-straight NCAA Tournament.

It is an elite level of company, bested only by UCLA (14 - 1967-1980), North Carolina (13 - 1981-1993), and Duke (1998-2006). The seven-straight Sweet 16 appearances tie Gonzaga with Duke (again 1986-1992) for the fourth-longest in tournament history.

If Gonzaga wins, that will mark three consecutive Elite Eight appearances, which ties Drake, Houston, Kansas, Kentucky, Memphis, Michigan State, Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio State, San Francisco, Santa Clara, UCLA, and UNLV for fourth-longest in tournament history.
