Bracket just announced--- LMU will be playing in the College Basketball Invitational on Wednesday, March 20th vs California Baptist University in Riverside, CA. Looks like CBU is already selling their tickets on their website. I just bought a couple seats. $15 bucks. cbulancers.com/postseason . I know they have a new arena that is pretty nice. I am just glad we will be playing in the postseason. Not sure why we were buying tickets for the postseason though?? Thought we were hosting???

Looks like they beat New Mexico State in early January but other than that they don’t seem to have very many, if any, quality wins.
They score 78 points a game so we need to slow them down, but they seem to just have a transfer guard from Washington State who does everything and if we can shut him down I really like our chances.
But as was pointed out they have a nice arena and this is their first postseason experience at the D I level ( this is actually their first year at the D I level), so expect the place to be packed. But this is a very winnable game.
The winner of our game plays the winner of Brown/Alabama-Birmingham. But one game at a time.
Go Lions!

While I would take our education at LMU over Cal Baptist all day everyday of the week (and our location), boy I would not want to lose this game if I were Pintens. What an excellent facility if you've ever been there that basically makes ours look like a D5 CIF gym. Next, in just their second DI year, they're already in the post season...matching the best of the 5-year Dunlap era. Would hate to lose this game and set us even further back in the local scene in terms of recruiting.
LMU already lost a trap game like this out in the IE, and this time its against a better opponent and a tough environment. Hope they win and host a game

Wonder if the game is on TV or video?
Don’t fancy a night drive to Riverside with our traffic.
Going may be worse than coming home due to rush hour.

When i called they said students and faculty are on break. I doubt they have a packed house or near those numbers.

The students being on a break is a big break for us...
