Countdown 10/1/13

39 days remain...

It's the month of practice, walk-ons dominating NAIA teams in exhibitions and the WCC Tip-Off Event. Jeff Tourial announced this morning that the tip-off event will be taking place on October 24th in Los Angeles. That is all we know at this point as he tweeted that details are still to come.

Last year's event took place at the Time Warner Cable SportsNet studios in El Segundo. Players and coaches from all 9 mens teams were in attendance, along with the commissioners, athletic directors and media (somehow, myself included). This year it appears the women will be involved as well.
While there is no indication this year's will be open to the public, fans need not be discouraged because last year was highly interactive. Over the course of the day a live stream on youtube featured interviews with the players and coaches. Fans were able to submit questions through social media outlets.

Keep your eyes peeled for press releases and tweets from accounts such as @WCChoops and @WCCsports.


Take a look at the live coverage from last year's event. This video appears to be the unedited live stream so you should scroll around rather than wait through the breaks.
