PITTSBURGH, Penn. -

The Gonzaga Bulldogs beat West Virginia 77-54 in Thursday's second round of the NCAA Tournament on Thursday.

Sam Adams and Patrick Erickson left early Tuesday morning to get into Pittsburgh by Tuesday night. And then they were up very early Wednesday morning to begin coverage on KHQ Local News Today.

Enjoy their pictures. Some of them show the Bulldogs as they get ready for their big game against West Virginia, and some of them are simply Sam and Pat having fun a couple of thousand miles away from home.
