Big Apple Classic 5th Anniversary at MSG


From our friends at the Big Apple Classic:
The Big Apple Classic, the only Black college basketball tournament at the world famous Madison Square Garden, returns to New York City for its fifth anniversary on December 4, bringing heart pounding basketball battles, electrifying drumlines and other memorable traditions of southern black colleges to the tri-state area.
Thousands of alumni, students, celebrity guests and other basketball fans are expected at what has become one of the most highly anticipated family and social events of the year. Featuring four top basketball teams from Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), the Big Apple Classic weekend starts Friday, December 3 with a kick-off party at Greenhouse and peaks on Saturday, December 4, with a basketball doubleheader. The classic rivalry between CIAA schools Virginia State University and Virginia Union University will take place at 4 p.m. and the battle of the HUs — MEAC schools Hampton University and Howard University, will take place at 7 p.m. at The Garden.
