Shut down by Gaels Timme recorded six points (2-10 FG, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and one block over 34 minutes during Saturday's 67-57 loss to Saint Mary's. Impact It was a rare rough night at the office for the Gonzaga star and former second-team All-American, as Timme had previously scored 13 or more points in eight consecutive contests, averaging 17.8 ppg over that span. In fact, him and top overall recruit Chet Holmgren combined for just a dozen in this one, so surely teams will attempt to use this plan as a blueprint for containing the Gonzaga frontcourt in the postseason. It was also the first WCC loss of the year for the Zags, who look to start a new streak in the WCC tournament.
