The Bulldogs made 11 of their first 14 field goal attempts while building a 31-15 lead just past the midway point of the first half.

Gonzaga, which came in leading the nation in field goal percentage at 53, improved to 16-for-21 from the floor on a basket by Eric McClellan that stretched the advantage to 45-25 with 3:22 remaining before intermission. The Bulldogs cooled off and missed their final three shots of the opening half, but still shot 66.7 percent and took a 45-27 lead into the break.
