The Mountain West Conference (MW) announced on Tuesday that the Fresno State men’s basketball team is projected to finish in sixth in the 11-team league this year, according to a press release from Fresno State Athletics.
The announcement comes from the MW media day held at Green Valley Ranch, Nevada.
The Bulldogs have been perennial contenders over the past four seasons and this one will follow up on last year’s 23-game winning season. Last season was head coach Justin Hutson’s first season with the Bulldogs. Hutson was named the 2018-2019 Joe B. Hall National Coach of the Year, an award that goes to the best first-year coach in the nation.
