No. 1 Santa Clara (19-10) vs. No. 4 Pepperdine (13-16)

Time: 1 p.m.

This season: The Broncos closed the regular-season with a 77-74 win at Pepperdine to clinch the top seed and sweep the series. The Waves lost 67-62 at Santa Clara.

Keys to the game: The Broncos are probably going to have to shoot better from the perimeter than they did in sneaking out an overtime win against San Francisco and they’ll definitely have to take better care of the ball. The young Waves have to keep their composure in game of this magnitude and stick tight on the sharp-shooting Broncos. Also, Kelcey Ball, the defensive player of the year, has to stay out of foul trouble.
