Today is the men’s basketball last season game. It should be an awesome game due to the fact it is at USD and it is against our biggest rival, Gonzaga. Due to the performance of the team throughout the semester, a victory does not look promising; but us students will overload the Jenny Craig Pavilion and cheer our hearts out for our Toreros. In other news, spring break is only a week away and everyone already has spring fever. It’s a gorgeous day at almost 80 degrees while back home on the east coast they are preparing their snow blowers from one more expected large gift from old man winter (AKA a lot of snow). So since spring break is coming up that means I have to start packing my bags for Las Vegas where I will be meeting up with my parents for the West Coast Conference tournament to see which basketball teams will be heading to The Big Dance. Hopefully like last year, both the men’s and women’s teams will get a bid into the NCAA tournament but that would mean they would both have to win the conference in Las Vegas. It is not out of the question because they did it last year, but I believe the fact that last year the tournament was held at our school and we had the home field advantage and a huge student presence allowed for an easier win. We will see what Vegas holds in store for our teams. This will be my first time in Vegas and I can’t wait to check it out, plus the fact it’s not a high school class trip where they check on you every 5 minutes, I will be able to check out the sights without someone down my back the whole time. If you have been to Vegas, send me an email and tell me some places I should check out! Thanks, Thomas
