by Kimberly Paschal | Staff Writer

Last Thursday the Saint Mary’s men’s basketball team played Gonzaga in what has to be one of the most epic games in McKeon Pavilion since the team’s win against Gonzaga back in 2012. Saint Mary’s fans were waiting all season for this matchup. McKeon Pavilion had a sold out crowd; some fans even paid for standing room only seats, while Gael Force packed in as tight and close as possible. With Gael Force cheering loudly and Saint Mary’s fans hoping for a win, the matchup between bitter rivals Saint Mary’s and Gonzaga was going to be an exciting one.
