The Big West Conference Tournament will be held from Tuesday, March 7 to Saturday, March 11 at the Dollar Loan Center in Henderson, Nevada.
Ten teams will participate and UC San Diego is ineligible as part of a transition rule from Division II to Division I. Seeds 1 through 6 get a bye to the second round and seeds 7 through 10 will play in the first round. The winner of the tournament will get an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament, and the regular season title-holder will get a bid to the NIT if they do not win the conference championship. There likely will not be any at-large bids for the Big West.
