About the California Basketball
California Basketball Tickets
The state of California has always been a haven for college basketball, and the California Golden Bears have long been one of the flagship programs in the northern part of the state. Even if the golden era for the Golden Bears is in the past, cheap California basketball tickets remain in short supply. The program still enjoys a strong following and continues to produce star players who move onto the NBA. Plus, with the program’s proud history and good reputation, it’s just a matter of time until the Bears are once again a force in the Pac-12, and last-minute California basketball tickets are in high demand.
The Opening Act
Head coach Nibs Price is the person who first built Cal into a basketball powerhouse. He coached back-to-back undefeated seasons early in his tenure, ultimately leading to a retroactive national title in 1927. Nibs would ultimately spend three decades in Berkeley, coaching from 1924 to 1954, winning 453 games, seven conference titles, and taking the Golden Bears to their first-ever Final Four in 1946.
Pistol Pete
In 1954, Pete Newell succeeded Nibs and quickly took the Golden Bears to another level. In six seasons, Newell led Cal to four straight conference titles and helped the Golden Bears win the 1959 national title. Cal was just one game away from defending that crown, losing in the 1960 National Championship Game. In six short years, Newell became one of the most influential people in Cal basketball history.
The Waiting Game
Unfortunately, things haven’t been the same for Cal since Newell retired after the 1960 season. It wasn’t until 1990 that the Golden Bears returned to the NCAA Tournament, and it was a 50-year wait until 2010 when Cal finally won another conference championship. Nevertheless, Cal remains a respectable college basketball program with a proud history and potentially a bright future.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where Does California Basketball Play?
Since 1933, the Golden Bears have played their home games at Haas Pavilion, which is located on the Cal campus in Berkeley, California. The venue was originally known as the Men’s Gym and has undergone several facelifts over the years. It was renamed in 1999 after Walter A. Haas, Jr. of Levi Strauss & Co., who provided a donation to help renovate the arena. In addition to hosting men’s and women’s basketball, the gymnastics and volleyball teams at Cal also use Haas Pavilion. Following its most recent expansion, Haas Pavilion has a capacity of over 11,800 fans for basketball games.
