Notae, Arkansas muscle top overall seed Gonzaga out of NCAAs

Associated Press  

SAN FRANCISCO — For 40 frenzied minutes, JD Notae, Jaylin Williams and Arkansas played a maddening, muscular style on both ends that took Gonzaga out of its game — and right out of the NCAA Tournament far earlier than these Zags expected. Notae finished with six rebounds, six assists, three steals and even swatted a pair of shots for the Razorbacks, who reached the Elite Eight for a second straight year and will face second-seeded Duke on Saturday, hoping to deny retiring coach Mike Krzyzewski one last trip to the Final Four. Drew Timme scored 25 points but couldn’t rally the normally high-scoring Bulldogs, who for the second straight season were favored to win that elusive national title but couldn’t keep up with Arkansas’ athleticism and fight. The Razorbacks lost to eventual champion Baylor in last year’s Elite Eight.. Arkansas improved to 8-5 in Sweet 16 games. Gonzaga: The Zags committed 15 turnovers, resulting in 10 Arkansas points.. Gonzaga’s seven straight Sweet 16s is the longest active run to this round..
