THIS WEEK: San Francisco is primed to host WCC rival Gonzaga for the first time since winning the 2011 WCC Title on the Bulldog’s turf last season. The three-game series begins on Friday at Benedetti Diamond at 3:00 p.m. and pits preseason All-American Kyle Zimmer (3-3, 2.79) against LHP Tyler Olson (4-0, 2.11). Game two of the series is on Saturday at 1:00 p.m., with the Sunday series finale starting at 12:00 p.m. Gonzaga is riding high, entering Friday with a six-game winning streak, including its three-game sweep over Santa Clara this past weekend. WEEK THAT WAS: The Dons went 2-3 last week from April 9-15, taking two of three games against WCC rival Loyola Marymount. After dropping two games to No. 16 Oregon in Eugene, the Dons got back on track in Los Angeles, winning games one and three of the three-game series against the Lions. The Dons scored 23 runs in the series against LMU, including a thrilling 8-5 extra-inning victory in the series finale, capped by Ted LeMasters’ play at the plate and go-ahead sac fly in the 10th inning. LOOKING AHEAD: After playing Gonzaga, USF stays home to host UC Davis on Tuesday, April 24, before hosting WCC newcomer, BYU for a three-game set starting on Thursday, April 26, at 3:00 p.m. LIVE VIDEO/AUDIO/STATS: http://client.stretchinternet.com/client/usf.portal#
