The BYU Cougars were sent crashing out of the West Coast Conference tournament, when they lost to San Diego on Friday night.
Tyler Haws, who was sick earlier this week, struggled to get into the game initially, and only picked up four points in the first half. However, he and the Cougars came out much stronger in the second half, and Haws finished the game with 20 points. Meanwhile, Brandon Davies also scored 20 points for the Cougars, and added nine rebounds.
BYU shot poorly in the first half, with 36 percent from the field and just one of six attempted three point shots made. However, they managed to up that field percentage to 45 percent by the end of the game.
The game went down to the wire, and BYU had the chance to tie it with just over five seconds remaining. However, Matt Carlino could not convert his second three in the last minute of the game, and USD came out with the win.

I haven't watched much Cougar basketball this year, but the fans all told me it's "fun" and "exciting". So I turn this on, and I must say it is the ugliest ball I've seen all year... and I'm a Utah fan! I see More..
We had a good run in this tournament, but we were finally knocked out by a power house program.
Finally, the season is over!
Well, expectations are over now, anyway.
