With an NCAA tournament berth going to the champion, we break down the tournament that begins Tuesday in Henderson, Nevada.
IRVINE — UC Irvine men’s basketball coach Russell Turner took extra pride in watching his team celebrate their latest Big West Conference regular-season title.
“This is really special,” Turner said. “Never had it like this here, championships with both programs, something that’s really hard to do. A lot of people get a lot of credit for that.” The Irvine women’s team is scheduled to play Wednesday at noon against the winner of Tuesday’s game between No. 8 Northridge and No. 9 Bakersfield.Irvine split its two meetings against the Gauchos, but the Anteaters earned the top seed based on a better record against third-place UC Riverside. Irvine won both meetings against UCR this season, while UCSB lost both matchups.
Cal State Fullerton is the defending tournament champion and the Titans arrive in Henderson as the hottest team in the conference, winning their past six games to finish fourth in the standings.
