Mountain West eliminates baseball tournament, implements other cost-cutting measures
The Mountain West Conference baseball tournament will not be held next year, as the conference officials try to reduce costs.
The Mountain West board of directors concluded its virtual spring meeting Monday with several cost-cutting changes implemented.
Conference baseball and softball series will be reduced from three days to two (double-header and single game).
