Bearcats included in 2016 Naismith Tip-Off Tournament

By participating in the annual event, Cincinnati will get a chance to compete with Duke, oh and some other teams as well.

Ever wanted to see Cincinnati play Brown University? Well you are in luck. The teams in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Tip-Off Tournament (nice succinct name there) were announced today and Cincinnati is among the eight schools that will participate. The others are Duke, Penn State, Rhode Island, Albany, Brown, Grand Canyon and Marist.

The eight teams are split into two groups and will play a selection of teams from the opposite side before taking part in a four-team bracket at Mogehan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut on Nov.
