The Gonzaga men's basketball team cruised to an 84-41 victory over Long Beach State at the McCarthey Athletic Center for Mark Few and company's fifth consecutive win.

The Bulldogs (5-0), boasting wins over Baylor, Arizona State and San Diego State already, put together their best defensive performance of the young season to hold the Beach to 17-of-54 (31.5%) from the field and 2-of-20 (10.0%) from 3-point range.

In addition to some stout team defense, the Zags had five players finish in double-figures in scoring, led by 15 points apiece from Graham Ike and Khalif Battle.

"We just had a good, good plan going in," redshirt sophomore Braden Huff said after the game. "Everyone dialed in. Obviously, it was a quick turnaround, but we've been really dialed in all year. That's been a main focus for this group. So to see that, that's pretty encouraging for for us, and hopefully that continues."
