Using spatial templates, we regress out pi0 gammas, as well as IC and bremsstrahlung components associated with known soft-synchrotron counterparts.  We find a significant gamma-ray excess towards the Galactic center with a spectrum that is significantly harder than other sky components and is most consistent with IC from a hard population of electrons.
