Conference winners and tournaments

[edit]

Twenty-nine conferences concluded their seasons with a single-elimination tournament, with only the Ivy League and the Pacific-10 Conference choosing not to conduct conference tournaments. Conference tournament winners generally received an automatic bid to the 2000 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament. The Mountain West Conference (MWC) began operation in 1999-2000 and its tournament winner did not receive an automatic bid, although UNLV, the winner of the inaugural MWC tournament, did receive an at-large bid.

Most Valuable Player
Philadelphia Big 5 Temple & Villanova Pepe Sánchez, Temple

After eight seasons in which each of Philadelphia Big 5 member played only two games against other Big 5 schools each year, the Big 5 returned to a full round-robin schedule in which each team met each other team once, a format it had used from its first season of competition in 1955–56 through the 1990–91 season. Temple and Villanova both finished with 3–1 records in head-to-head competition among the Big 5.
