SPOKANE, Wash. — Over 6,000 fans packed the McCarthey Athletic Center Saturday to get their first look at the 2025-26 Gonzaga Bulldogs at the team’s annual Kraziness in the Kennel scrimmage and 3-point contest.
After Steele Venters won the 3-point shoot-out, the Team Blue vs. Team White scrimmage got underway. The game went back and forth with eight lead changes and seven ties, staying close until the final buzzer, but it was Team Blue sneaking out the 41-39 win.
It was the new-comers to GU leading the way for Team Blue, with Arizona State transfer Adam Miller putting up 13 points, followed by Virginia transfer Jalen Warley’s nine points, and freshman David Fogle’s seven. Team blue shot 50% from three, while Team White was just 3-13 from beyond the ark.
Braden Huff led Team White with 17 points, just two shy of tying his own Kraziness record, which he set in 2024. Steele Venters, who missed the past two seasons with injury since transferring from Eastern Washington, added nine points on three shots from beyond the arc, and Graham Ike totaled eight points and 11 rebounds.
