Overall, Loyola Marymount made 81.8 percent of their free throws, but struggled mightily from the field. The Lions shot just 29.8 percent overall and 18.8 percent from three.
Gonzaga, the nation’s second-best shooting team, shot 51.1 percent, including a 14-19 combined performance from Pangos and Olynyk.
The Bulldogs will next visit rival St. Mary’s on Feb. 14 for an 11 p.m. ET tilt.
