Fourth-ranked Gonzaga routed Santa Clara by an average of 33 points in two regular-season meetings and aims for its 15th consecutive victory in the all-time series when the teams meet in Monday's West Coast Conference tournament semifinals in Las Vegas. Gonzaga owns the best record in the nation and has recorded 21 victories by 20 or more points this season, including Friday's 82-50 quarterfinal triumph over Pacific.

Second-seeded Saint Mary’s will try to move closer to its first WCC tournament championship since 2012 when it meets No. 3 BYU in a semifinal contest Monday in Las Vegas. The Gaels defeated 10th-seeded Portland 81-58 in Saturday’s quarterfinals, about eight hours after the Cougars knocked off No. 6 Loyola Marymount 89-81 at Orleans Arena.
