Kansas University’s basketball team will meet Memphis in the 2010 Jimmy V. Classic on Dec. 7 at New York’s Madison Square Garden, tournament officials announced today.
The Jayhawks and Tigers will play the first game of a one-day doubleheader. Michigan State will meet Syracuse in the other game.
The doubleheader benefits The V Foundation for Cancer Research.
Since it was established in 1993 to honor the late Jim Valvano, The V Foundation has raised more than $95 million for cancer research.
