LIVE UPDATES FROM GONZAGA'S PRACTICE

2:45 p.m.

Gonzaga coach Mark Few fielded questions from reporters for about 10 minutes. When asked about the Bulldogs' eighth consecutive appearance in the Sweet 16 this quote stood out:

"It's probably 1A and 1B, the Sweet 16 run of eight years and making [the NCAA Tournament] 24 years straight is probably the thing I'm most proud of, in terms of our team accomplishments. It means we've stayed relevant. We haven't dropped off ... We haven't lost in the first round. Again, our guys deserve all of the credit for just maintaining that winning DNA and just figuring it out ... This probably wasn't looking realistic there way back in November, early December."
