Tritons will make their Division I postseason debut on Saturday against No. 15 Chicago State in a first-round CBI matchup in Daytona Beach
The College Basketball Invitational receives a fraction of the attention devoted to the NCAA Tournament — or even the NIT. None of that matters to second-seeded UC San Diego, which will make its Division I postseason debut Saturday against No. 15 Chicago State in a first-round CBI matchup in Daytona Beach, Fla. The game tips at 12:30 p.m. PDT and will be available to stream at Flohoops.com. The winner faces either Fairfield or Little Rock in Monday’s quarterfinals.
Really proud of our effort through this conference season. I think we learned a lot going through the Big West season and being in contention, playing in big games that mattered late in February and March. And now the CBI can let us learn about being in a tournament setting, a lose-or-go home setting. Our guys are ready to go.” Olen, who is completing his 11th season coaching the Tritons, was named Big West Coach of the Year.
