Report: Gonzaga to revive game in Seattle next year

SEATTLE – Stadium Jeff Goodman reported Sunday morning that Gonzaga will face a yet-to-be-named senior opponent at Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena next season. The game takes place on December 4th.

Goodman also reports that this will be an annual event for Gonzaga that will essentially bring back the battle in Seattle.

The Zags played one game in the Battle of Seattle each season before they couldn’t schedule an opponent for the 2016-2017 season. The event was played 13 years before the 2016 season and has not returned since. It was a fan favorite, especially for fans who can’t watch games in the kennel.

Some of Gonzaga’s most famous moments occurred in the Battle of Seattle, including Adam Morrison’s bench that shot three winners over the state of Oklahoma.
