"Gonzaga is proud to call Spokane home and we are grateful for the support of this amazing community.  We are proud of our Men's basketball program, for all they have accomplished, and look forward to tonight's incredible contest.  I join with Mayor Woodward and Chief Meidl in asking that everyone celebrate safely and legally, with respect for our neighbors in the local community, and for Spokane Police Department officers and all of our first responders, who every day make sacrifices to keep our community safe," says University President McCulloh.
