Gonzaga Bulldogs Women's Basketball Tickets
The Bulldogs were undefeated in conference play for both the 2009-2010 and 2010-2011 seasons. The latter of the two teams made it to the Elite Eight round of the NCAA Tournament before losing to No. 1 seed Stanford Cardinal. The 31-5 record the team achieved that season is the top performance in school history. Team leader Courtney Vandersloot is credited with transforming the culture of women's basketball on the Gonzaga campus during her time with the school. Average attendance at women's basketball games at Gonzaga was 1,500 per game when Vandersloot first arrived at the school. By the time Vandersloot became the first women's basketball player at Gonzaga to be named an All-American, this number had tripled. Five Gonzaga players received honors from the WCC following the 2019-2020 regular season. Jill Townsend was named player of the year for the conference, and both Townsend and forward Jenn Wirth were named to the All-WCC first team.
