LAS VEGAS -- Saint Mary's had heard for weeks about the NCAA tournament bubble. First four in, first four out, fortunate to be in the discussion to be included in the field of 68.
Tired of all the chatter, the Gaels put an emphatic end to it, popping the bubble by taking down a team no one outside their program thought they could beat.
Saint Mary's ended the nation's longest winning streak and Gonzaga's six-year reign as West Coast Conference tournament champions, grinding out a 60-47 victory in the title game on Tuesday night.
"We were told to pull off a miracle by people who don't know us,'' said Saint Mary's guard Jordan Hunter, who had 12 points and 15 rebounds. "We didn't need a miracle. We knew we could beat them.''
Saint Mary's (22-11) all but shut down the nation's highest-scoring team by slowing the game and forcing top-ranked Gonzaga to grind out possessions instead of playing fast and free.
