March 5, 2007

Baylor basketball fans attending the 2007 Phillips 66 Big 12 Championships in Oklahoma City this week are invited to attend the Baylor Sports Network's Rally the Bears event prior to each game involving the Baylor basketball teams.

These free events, which will feature appearances by the Baylor cheer squad and pep band, will be held 90 minutes prior to each Baylor game on Reno Street between Gayloard and Robinson and close to the arenas which will be hosting the 2007 tournaments, the Ford Center and the Cox Convention Center. In case of bad weather, the events will move inside the Cox Convention Center.

The Lady Bears will meet the winner of the Oklahoma State-Kansas game on Wednesday, March 7, at 8:20 p.m. in the quarterfinals. The Baylor men, meanwhile, will meet Missouri on Thursday, March 8, at 8:20 p.m. in final game of the opening round's first day.

Fans are also encouraged to greet other Baylor basketball supporters at the Baylor table located in the Big 12 Basketball Fest at Cox Cenvention Center.
