Stanford finds itself alone in first place, one game ahead of both Cal and ASU. Three teams now playing for both the Conference Championship and the # 1 seed in the Pac 10 Tournament.
A word about the Tournament, OK a couple of numbers and more words. 900 or so cared enough to attend each of the two games at USC’s Galen Center. What in the word was the Pac 10 thinking? Maybe that 4,000 in San Jose was too many fans? Now we can get it down to less than 2,000? Crazy.
