The Big West Conference men’s basketball “Bold Week” concludes Saturday night with Cal State Fullerton visiting Hawai’i for the last time in league play.

Tipoff is set for 7 p.m. in BankOh Arena at the Stan Sheriff Center; the game will be televised live statewide on Spectrum Sports Channel 12 and broadcast live via radio on ESPN 1420AM.

The Warriors are 7-2 coming off Thursday’s 75-69 home victory over UC Davis; the Titans are 3-6 after Thursday’s 94-91 home loss to Cal Poly San Luis Obispo.

“In league play, there’s a lot of familiarity, but not so much in this new world,” UH coach Eran Ganot said. “But we know what their program has stood for for a long time. It’s a big game for us, and a big game for them. It’s great to be a part of, knowing it’s going to be heated competition.”
