Old Spice Classic

CAL LEADS 2010 FIELD, AS EVENT MARKS FIVE YEARS

Five years ago a new early season basketball tournament entered the hoops universe, and Arkansas beat West Virginia for the inaugural Old Spice Classic crown. This November a new crop of teams will huddle up with one goal: the 2010 Old Spice Classic championship. Boston College, California, Georgia, Manhattan, Notre Dame, Temple, Texas A&M and Wisconsin will vie for bragging rights in the fifth annual tournament to be held on Thanksgiving weekend at the Milk House at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex near Orlando, Fla. The event will feature 12 games through three days, Nov. 25, 26 and 28, with each team competing in one game per day and advancing through a bracket-tournament format. The two teams that remain undefeated will face off in a championship match Sunday, Nov. 28. Last November, Florida State edged Marquette. MORE
