The top-seeded Utah Valley Wolverines (25-7) will square off against the second-seeded Grand Canyon Lopes (24-7) in a high-stakes WAC Tournament championship clash at Orleans Arena on Saturday night, with an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament on the line.
Utah Valley has been dominant throughout the conference tournament, and their defensive effort played a pivotal role in Friday’s 68-55 semifinal victory over Seattle. The Wolverines stifled Seattle’s offence, allowing just 55 points, and now stand one win away from securing a trip to March Madness.
On the other side, Grand Canyon has showcased its versatility, proving it can win in multiple ways. In Friday’s semifinal against Cal Baptist, the Lopes delivered a defensive clinic in the first half, holding their opponent to just 16 points. The script flipped in the second half, where their offence came alive, erupting for 50 points en route to a convincing win.
