A limited number of new tickets will hit Ticketmaster.com on Tuesday evening, which is the deadline for the schools playing at Ball Arena to decide how many tickets they want, and how many they'll surrender. There's not a specific time for when those tickets would be listed, so fans will need to keep an eye on the Ticketmaster website.

Friday, March 17

11:30 a.m. (14) UC Santa Barbara vs. (3) Baylor
