ASU Sun Devils Seek to Break Washington Huskies Jinx in L.A. Tonight
The ASU men's basketball team has one last chance at 6 p.m. tonight to beat one of the Washington schools this season, when they meet the Washington Huskies in semi-final action at the Pac-10 basketball tournament here in L.A.
The Sun Devils are fresh from completing a trifecta of victories over once-dominant Arizona, and beating UW after a pair of regular season losses, first in Tempe and then an overtime loss in Seattle a few weeks ago. Washington won the conference championship, and this tournament game -- while sure to be hotly contested -- is more of an exercise for seeding purposes at the upcoming Big Dance than anything else.
