The average height of pedestrians in Downtown Boise is about to spike significantly.
Twenty-two Division I college basketball teams will be in town as the Big Sky Conference brings its men’s and women’s basketball tournaments to CenturyLink Arena in Downtown Boise. Games begin Monday with the women’s championship Friday and the men’s championship Saturday. The men’s final will air on ESPNU as part of the annual “Championship Week” celebration of conference tournaments.
This is the first time that the Big Sky has played its men’s and women’s tournaments in Boise in the same year. The last time Boise hosted a Division I conference tournament was 1994, when Boise State staged the Big Sky men’s tournament as a conference member.
