The Cincinnati Bearcats are hoping to add another banner to the rafters when Fifth Third Arena reopens next season after a year of renovation.
The No. 8 Bearcats face No. 21 Houston on Sunday afternoon in the American Athletic Conference Tournament championship in Orlando, Fla., looking to avenge their loss in last year's tourney final and secure their first league postseason crown since winning the Conference USA tournament in 2004.
Cincinnati will continue its season next week in the NCAA Tournament, but coach Mick Cronin isn't taking his foot off the gas.
"I think it's my 15th year as a head coach, but it's Gary Clark and Kyle Washington's last chance to win a conference tournament," Cronin said.
