Team Overview:
Eastern Washington is 16 miles from Spokane, but the short trip isn't likely to help. The Eagles have lost four straight, averaging 51.3 points and shooting 31.2 percent over their last three. Eastern Washington lost 72-67 to previously winless Jackson State on Wednesday in the final round of the Las Vegas Classic. "Right now it feels like early to mid-November when you don't know exactly what your team is like yet," coach Kirk Earlywine said. "That's not a good feeling." Senior forward Mark Dunn is averaging a team-best 11.9 points for Eastern Washington but scored two on 1-for-5 shooting Wednesday. The Eagles are 0-6 when he fails to score in double figures.
Team Leaders:
Points: Mark Dunn 11.9
Assists: Glen Dean 3.8
Rebounds: Brandon Moore 7.7
Best Player:
Brandon Moore F/C 6-9 250 SR
Moore is their best all around player and the only hope the Eagles have of stopping Robert Sacre Down low...
My Take:
This game is going to be as easy as they come in college basketball. Eastern Washington will be outmatched in every aspect of the game. This will be a nice rebound game from the ugly loss at Madison Square Garden to Duke, and i expect us to tune up for Thursday nights New Years bash against Oklahoma.
Final Score: Gonzaga 105 Eastern Washington 67
