Since opening this past fall, Wintrust Arena has already attracted its fair share of events, ranging from concerts to college basketball to even professional basketball thanks to the Chicago Sky of the WNBA. Starting today, the arena gains another use when the Big East Conference comes to town for their women's basketball tournament. The tournament has been held annually since 1983, but exclusively located on the east coast till 2014, when it moved to Chicago. After one year in Milwaukee, its back in town with a new venue. DePaul and Marquette are the two teams to watch coming into the tournament, as they shared the regular season conference title, but this is anyone's tournament. The excitement promises to be there when the first game tips off today at 4:00
