Welcome to the Official CVC Blog

Welcome to the official blog for the 2K Sports Classic benefiting Coaches vs. Cancer. We are excited to bring this to you. This blog will have all of the latest information about the upcoming tournament.

The 2008 2K Sports Classic will get underway with regional action at four sites (November 10-14) with the Championship Round games at Madison Square Garden (November 20^th & 21^st). And don’t forget, you can follow all of the action at www.cvcclassic.com.

So, we wanted to start out this first blog by talking about the arena that houses the championship rounds and where it falls in the list of greatest arenas where the Coaches vs. Cancer Tournament has been played. So here is our Top 5 list…

5) Breslin Center- Michigan State

4) O’Connell Center- University of Florida

3) Carrier Dome- Syracuse University

2) Rupp Arena- University of Kentucky

1) Madison Square Garden… it is called “the mecca”.

There are many that we could put in the list. In fact, we could easily do a Top 20 list, but we will keep it to five. We would love to hear what you think.
