WCAC Champion USD Meets Portland Tonight
The University of San Diego, which clinched the West Coast Athletic Conference championship by defeating Gonzaga Thursday night, will play host to Portland at 7:30 tonight.
The Toreros (11-1, 21-4) will probably play Loyola Marymount--currently last in the conference--in the first round of the WCAC postseason tournament at USD next Saturday. The winner of the WCAC will gain an automatic berth to the NCAA Tournament.
USD’s final regular-season game is at St. Mary’s Wednesday night.
Tonight’s game means little to USD, but it is important for Portland (6-6, 14-11). The Pilots are tied for third place in the conference with St. Mary’s. Portland lost, 73-59, to St. Mary’s Thursday night.
