LAS VEGAS -- Now the uneasy wait begins for the Saint Mary's College basketball team.
The Gaels, who lost 85-75 to Gonzaga in Tuesday night's West Coast Conference tournament championship game, seem likely to get good news, anyway, when the NCAA tournament field is unveiled on Sunday.They arrived at Orleans Arena for the title-game showdown with an eight-game win streak, a sturdy No. 35 RPI ranking and a projected No. 8 NCAA seed by ESPN bracketologist.They passed the so-called eye test on Tuesday, trailing by just a single point with less than 7 minutes to go.If that means anything, could Saint Mary's drop all the way off the selection committee's radar by Sunday?
