One after another Wednesday, members of the University of Akron men's basketball team pointed to Gonzaga as the program to which they aspire -- and target.For more than 25 minutes, Akron used exceptional three-point accuracy to challenge Gonzaga, the NCAA South Region's No. 4 seed. But Gonzaga used a 19-1 run midway through the second half to suppress the Zips and win, 77-64."I really like how our guys hung with this game," Bulldogs Coach Mark Few said. "It was a grinder."Akron had a 49-43 lead after making 8 of 13 three-point attempts but, with 15 minutes left to play, Gonzaga began to show why it has shed the mid-major label that is affixed to so many schools from non-BCS conferences.
