White squad wins intrasquad scrimmage by two points

SPOKANE, Wash. — The Gonzaga men's basketball team put on a show in front of a standing-room only crowd at the 2022 Numerica Kraziness in the Kennel at the McCarthey Athletic Center Saturday.

Fans were treated to introductions, a three-point shootout, and a skills challenge, before an intersquad scrimmage.

Julian Strawther edged out Hunter Sallis and Braden Huff for the skills challenge title. Rasir Bolton won a shootout in the three-point contest over Malachi Smith.

After last season's scrimmage ended in a 38-38 tie, the White team used a late basket from Ben Gregg to defeat the Navy team, 38-36, this year. For the second straight season, Strawther led all scorers in the 15-minute scrimmage with 12 points. Like last year, he made five of his nine shots from the field for the Navy team. He grabbed a game-high five rebounds. Nolan Hickman added 11 points.

Drew Timme led the White team with nine points. Colby Brooks and Gregg both chipped eight points. Bolton dished out a game-high five assists.

The Zags open the 2022-23 season in a charity exhibition, the Legends of Basketball Charity Classic, against Tennessee in Frisco, Texas, on Oct. 28.
