20 -- PORTLAND -- Experience can play a big role once you get to the NCAA Tournament. League coverage adds Gonzaga got contributions from players with anywhere from two to eight tournament games under their belt, but a group of NCAA newcomers also had a massive role in what Mark Few's team did on both ends. Team-side reporting suggests Three Gonzaga players made their NCAA Tournament debut on Thursday: two 19-year-old freshmen and a 23-year-old senior playing at his third school in his fifth college season. Post-game reporting indicates Davis Fogle and Mario Saint-Supery both made a splash for Gonzaga in the West Coast Conference Tournament championship game and didn't seem phased by the heightened stakes in Thursday's NCAA opener. League coverage adds Fogle gave the Zags a lift with his scoring, opening with six points and 11 more in the second to finish with 17 on 6 of 13 shooting and 4 of 5 from the free -throw. Team-side reporting suggests Finishing with eight assists., Saint-Supery scored seven points on 2 of 11 from the field but was at his best as a distributor.
