It’s time to get your printable 2016 Big West Tournament bracket. This year’s conference tournament will be held on March 10-12, 2016. All conference postseason play will take place at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, and the winner of the tournament will earn the conference’s automatic bid to the 2016 NCAA Men’s Tournament. There will only be eight schools participating in the tournament this year with Cal State Northridge not playing due to a self-imposed ban on postseason play. The overall #1 seed in the tournament is Hawaii and UC Irvine is the #2 seed due to losing the tie breaker with Hawaii (0-2 head to head during regular season play).
