It's fair to say that Zag Nation has taken over the treasure valley and after a really close call--fans, students, and the team aren't going back to Spokane, Washington just yet.

The game was intense and despite pulling away from University of North Carolina Greensboro in the second half, it wasn't until the final seconds that I was comfortable with the Zags' chance at winning.

This game was really special today because, as pictured above, you can see it was my moms very first Gonzaga basketball game. I was able to land some highly coveted tickets last minute and luckily, like a die-hard fan, she had already taken the day off of work just to WATCH the game from home on TV.

Now, with a victory under Gonzaga's belt, it's on to Ohio State--a game that will again be played right here in Boise. A familiar name here at 103.5 KISS FM, Michelle Heart, is a big Ohio State fan...so the rivalry in the building leading up to Saturday is real!
