SANTA CLARA, Calif. - The rivaly between Santa Clara University and San Jose State resumes Tuesday night in the annual Clash of the County, a men and women's basketball doubleheader scheduled for 6 p.m. at the Leavey Center.

The Santa Clara women's basketball team is 3-1 on the season following Saturday's championship game win over 25th-ranked Washington in the Seattle Times Husky Classic. Junior Tammy Annas was named the tournament's most valuable player after scoring a game-high 21 points against the host Huskies.
