Last week Gonzaga College High School hosted the 20th annual Gonzaga DC Classic. It has been reported that a Gonzaga parent proposed that Gonzaga host a holiday basketball tournament in Washington, DC. That parent enlisted the support of the Gonzaga Fathers’ Club, formed a committee of interested Gonzaga fathers, and began to work the plan.
