The 4th-ranked Gonzaga Bulldogs are in Phoenix today to take on the University of Arizona Wildcats. The Duel in the Desert will be just the third match-up between these programs, Gonzaga having lost the two previous meetings. Arizona, a team regularly counted among the nation's best, is coping with the loss of legendary coach Lute Olson. Gonzaga, fresh off embarrassing WSU on their home court, is looking to make it a clean sweep of the Pac-10. Chase Budinger, Jordan Hill and Nic Wise, a trio of players as good as any three in the country, are raising Arizona's hopes of victory. The Wildcats, however, are outgunned at virtually every position. With Sacre out for 2-4 weeks with an injured foot, the resposibility for shutting down Jordan Hill in the paint is going to fall squarely on the shoulders of Heytvelt. If Josh can stay out of foul trouble and help the Zags win the battle of the boards, look for the Bulldogs to take one on Arizona's home court.
Go Zags.
