His injury has left the supporters extremely sad. Ben Gregory
Gregg contributed significantly to the Zags’ 89-68 rout victory on Saturday in the NCAA Tournament Round of 32. He played 32 minutes, when he wasn’t occupied with using an elastic band to stretch his sore right foot or ankle on the bench or hobbling off for a brief period of time in the second half after a Kansas player collided with his right leg.
The junior forward, who had suffered an ankle injury against Saint Mary’s in the West Coast Conference Tournament final game in Las Vegas, had a lot of pain and discomfort going into the tournament.
In the ecstatic GU locker room, Gregg took stock of his 6-foot-10 physique following the thrilling victory over Kansas.
“The body is damaged,” Gregg remarked with a smile. I am a complete mess at the moment. I’m really hurting. I step on my foot incorrectly, and it hurts. However, Josh (Therrien), our training team, and everyone else have done an amazing job guiding me and supporting me nonstop. I am so grateful to them.”
What was Gregg’s reaction on Saturday morning? Not very good.
It was apparent that today would be really exciting, according to Gregg.
He therefore most likely didn’t anticipate finishing with 15 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks, and 1 assist after making all six of his field goal attempts, including a pair of momentum-building 3-pointers.
