The SCIAC has a lot of teams fighting for that last playoff spot...just like the NWC

When is the SCIAC tourney??  The SCIAC website doesnt have it posted.
Is it the Fri (2/29) and Sat (3/1) after conferrence or the Sat (3/1) and Sun(3/2)??

The conference tournament is on Feb. 29 and Mar. 1. In inimitable SCIAC fashion, it's not posted in plain sight on the basketball schedule, where you'd think it'd be. Instead, it's hidden here.

So, the women get a day off, but the men play two days in a row. ???

Does any one have any insight into where the tourney will be taking place? What's the chance's of it being held at the forum (the old great western forum that is???)?

The top seed will host the SCIAC tournament.  That will be decided this Wed when the Tigers clash with the Kingsmen in Rush Gymnasium.
Go TIGERS!!!

Tough days for Tiger Football.

I will happen to be in Southern California this week. 

How far is the drive from Cerritos to the Oxy campus?  If I can get away from what I am doing by 6:30 p.m., can I make it by tip off?  Halftime?

Thanks for your help.

I am asking about tomorrow night's game between Oxy and CLU, BTW.  Should've been more specific.

Driving Directions from Cerritos, CA to 1600 Campus Rd, Eagle Rock, CA

An hour should be enough time to make it from the game, however, I've never driven that area during rush hour.  Good luck, hope you can make it.

you might consider taking the 605 N to the 210 W.  you never know with LA traffic, but it might be better than going through downtown.  the map on the link is a bit deceiving - Oxy is a bit closer to Pasadena than it shows.  if traffic is bad, you might not make it by tip-off, but you'll definitely be there by midway through the first half.

i've officially worked my way up to varsity :)

any early picks for All Conference/POY?  Not sure I'm qualified, as I've only seen Oxy and CLU so far this year.  One under-the-radar player I hope gets some consideration is Acerboni from CLU.  He doesn't put up the points so he doesn't get the recognition, but he does everything else and is very important to that team.

Thanks for answering my questions folks.

The biggest game for both the men in orange and black and "the who" goes on tomorrow night at the Rock and where does this young buck have to be? Handling some business on the U.L.V campus. I'll try to keep this board updated with the Leo v.s. Pups game, but as Bob noted already, i am sure the Pup....ehh, i mean the Leo's will walk away with a victory.

btw, Steve, if you decide to take the 605 onto the 210 expect to encounter heavy traffic where both of these freeways meet ( i'll be heading east of this junction tomorrow afternoon and always tend to see a mess on both sides of these Freeways). Like many posters have highlighted already your commute should take you at least 45 mins to an hour.  Best of luck and i hope you enjoy your time in So.Cal  8)

I was out of town over the weekend and apparently missed an exciting weekend of basketball.  Wish I could be in Eagle Rock tonight but, alas, I will be watching my eldest son play the role of Leif Erikson in his fifth grade play.  If that's not evidence of increased racial profiling in our nation's elementary schools, I don't know what is... ;)  I will count on oxybroadcast to keep me informed. Here's a pre-game piece from today's VC Star.

The Oxy-PP result was a surprise, but not a total shocker.  It's always tough to beat Kats twice in one season.  The new tourney format sure helps keep things interesting.  As much as I'd like to see a new team in the mix it seems like the tourney will likely include the usual suspects. It will take the Poets' best game, but if they can beat PP tonight it will certainly stir the pot.

Chad Acerboni is a good defensive player, but Player of the Year? Sorry, but no.


Sorry I wasn't more clear - I meant that I hope Acerboni gets consideration for all-conference, not POY.  btw, for the record, he's 2nd in the SCIAC in both assists and steals. 

If I had to pick today, I would pick Whitman for POY (this coming from a Kingsmen fan).  Here's to hoping that changes tonight :)
