Rasir Bolton\u2019s game-winning putback with eight seconds left pushed No. 9 Gonzaga<\/a> to a 77-75 victory over San Francisco Thursday night at War Memorial Gym.<\/p>\n

The Zags (13-3, 2-0 WCC) overcame a double-digit halftime deficit behind the efforts of Bolton, who scored a team-high 21 points on 8-for-12 shooting from the floor, including 5-for-7 from deep. <\/p>\n

For the Dons (11-7, 0-3 WCC), they\u2019ve dropped their first three conference games despite thoroughly winning the rebounding battle, 45-26, and knocking down 10 3-pointers.<\/p>\n

While both teams exchanged blows throughout the first half, the Dons had the advantage on the boards, outrebounding the Zags 26-11 while scoring 16 second-chance points off nine offensive rebounds.<\/p>\n

Fueled by its leading scorer Khalil Shabazz, San Francisco led by double-digits following a 13-4 run. The All-WCC selection scored 13 points, <\/strong>grabbed a team-best seven rebounds and knocked down four <\/strong>of his team\u2019s eight first-half <\/strong>3-pointers.<\/p>\n

Trailing by as many as 12 points, Mark Few\u2019s squad slowly but surely battled back against San Francisco.<\/p>\n

After knocking down the game\u2019s first basket, Gonzaga battled from behind throughout the night before Bolton\u2019s heroics at the finish. The 6-foot-3 guard helped trim the deficit to three on two separate occasions before a steal led to a breakaway layup for Hickman to tie the game with just over two minutes remaining.<\/p>\n

Tyrell Roberts scored two of his team-high 18 points on a turnaround jumper in the paint to give the Dons the lead back.<\/p>\n

Anton Watson answered on the other end with a two-hand dunk over Volodymyr Marktovetskyy, though the senior wasn\u2019t able to give the Zags the lead with a free throw.<\/p>\n

On the following possession, Bolton cleaned up a missed layup attempt from Timme to Gonzaga a two-point lead with eight seconds left. San Francisco never got a shot off on its last possession.<\/p>\n
