MORAGA, Calif. — Taelor Karr made a go-ahead three-pointer with two minutes left and added three free throws in the final 31 seconds to help No. 22 Gonzaga beat Saint Mary's 75-70 Saturday.
Katelan Redmon of Spokane contributed 14 points and 11 rebounds and Kayla Standish of Ellensburg scored 18 points for the Zags (19-3 overall, 8-1 West Coast Conference).
Two weeks after Gonzaga had its 34-game WCC winning streak snapped with a 66-63 loss to the Gaels in Spokane, it blew a 15-point halftime lead and needed a late rally after Saint Mary's surged to a 63-59 lead.
Jasmine Smith had 20 points for the Gaels (16-7, 7-3) but committed a critical backcourt violation with 15 seconds left and her team down by three.
