CLAREMONT, Calif. (Feb. 23, 2010) – In the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference finale there was excitement all over the league. With playoff pairings being discussed for the last 72 hours with every what-if scenario brought to the table, it all panned out tonight in three different gymnasiums.
