PROVO, Utah – The West Coast Conference reconfigured the final week of the regular season and it’s a big boost to BYU basketball.
Instead of playing one game against Santa Clara on Thursday, February 25th, the WCC moved around BYU’s schedule and put in postponed home games against San Francisco and Saint Mary’s to close out the regular season.

The Santa Clara game now moves off the schedule. BYU hasn’t faced the Broncos this season.
BYU basketball played San Francisco and Saint Mary’s in a Bay Area sweep last month. Both the Gaels and the Dons are currently in the top 100 of the NET rankings.
BYU’s game against San Francisco will tip-off at 7 p.m. (MST) and will air on CBS Sports Network. The season-finale against Saint Mary’s will tip at 8 p.m. (MST) on either ESPN or ESPN2.
