They were eligible to play in the CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament or College Basketball Invitational. They finished the season 16–15, 7–9 in WAC play to finish in a tie for fifth place. The Lancers accepted an invitation to play in the CBI where they were defeated in the first round by Loyola Marymount.
