*-denotes change from previously released tournament schedules
Oregon State (3-0 overall) continues its long march around the country, this weekend hitting the southwestern corner of the 48 contiguous states. The Beavers will be in San Diego for San Diego State's Jim Dietz Classic, played at SDSU's Tony Gwynn Stadium and at the University of San Diego.
If the Beavers can win three games, they'll give head coach Pat Casey his 100th victory at Oregon State. Casey came to OSU from George Fox College for the 1995 seeason.
The tournament field includes OSU, San Diego State, San Diego, Point Loma Nazarene, New Mexico, Cal-Santa Barbara, Portland, Minnesota, Washington and CETYS, which is a university team from Mexico. OSU's tourney schedule does not include games against Point Loma Nazarene, New Mexico or Washington.
OSU will play a non-counting exhibition against CETYS, which replaces a Canadian team that was forced to withdraw from the tournament for financial reasons.
Oregon State has also tentatively added a game against New Mexico to make up for one of the games that was rained out at San Jose State. That game won't be counted as part of the tournament, but adding that contest would make it seven games in five days for the Beavers.
