No. Can they still get a 5 or a 6 seed in the big dance? . . . maybe. Hope springs eternal, even from the pit of despair. Yvonne Ejim is poised to break all the records and the Gonzaga women remain on a hot streak with

Gonzaga gets a couple of blowout wins over the Beavers and Broncos and appear to be back on the right track. On Saturday the Gaels will attempt to derail them with deplorable basketball tactics and a snail's pace. We celebrate the wins, but want to see this team get a big win on the road in Moraga. The biggest key to that game? Limit offensive rebounds. Lots of swears in this one . . . sorry mom. Support the show! patreon.com/freeirabrown
