The Great West Conference Baseball Tournament, sometimes referred to simply as the Great West Tournament, was the conference baseball championship of the NCAA Division I Great West Conference. The eight members of the league played in the double-elimination tournament, which in its final season (2013) was played at Bears & Eagles Riverfront Stadium in Newark, New Jersey.[1] Because of the league's provisional status in Division I, the winner of the tournament did not receive an automatic berth to the NCAA Division I Baseball Championship.[2]
