Big Ten Basketball Tournaments Next Up for Indy

Fresh from hosting a successful Super Bowl, Indianapolis is gearing up to host both the men's and women's Big Ten Basketball tournaments at Bankers Life Fieldhouse (formerly Conseco Fieldhouse) in March. The city will roll out the red carpet, including temporarily changing the name of downtown's streets to reflect the Big Ten teams and assigning sports bars to serve as team headquarters. The women's event will be held the first week of March, while the men's event is slated for the second week of March. This year's men's event will be a particularly hot ticket since five Big Ten teams are ranked among the AP Top 25.
