Broncos prepare for the big dance

It's official. The Cal Poly Pomona men's basketball team is back in the NCAA Division II Championship game after defeating Bentley University in the semifinal round, 71-63 on Thursday night at the MassMutual Center.

Austin Swift led the way for the Broncos with 22 points (6-11 FG) while Dahir Nassar (11 points), Tobias Jahn (11 points) and Mitchel Anderson (10 points) also scored in double figures for Cal Poly Pomona. The Broncos shot an impressive 50.9 percent from the field throughout the game's 40 minutes.

Currently enjoying its most successful season in history with 27 wins, Cal Poly Pomona returns to the final round one year removed from last year's heartbreaking overtime loss to Findlay in the 2009 championship game. This year, the Broncos will take on Indiana University of Pennsylvania in another effort to win its first men's basketball title. The game begins tomorrow morning at 10 a.m. PST on CBS and can also be watched online at NCAA Sports.com.
