PULLMAN – Mark Few and his Gonzaga assistants have presumably spent their week skimming through game film on the North Dakota basketball team, installing the Fighting Hawks’ schemes and singling out the players most likely to make a dent in tonight’s 5 o’clock game at the Kennel.
A phone call to Drick Bernstine could’ve also done the trick.
Bernstine, a fifth-year graduate transfer at Washington State, joined the Cougars after spending two seasons with the Fighting Hawks and was a central figure in UND’s school record 22-win season that ended in the first round of the 2016-17 NCAA Tournament.
