George Washington Women’s Basketball to Compete in Jacksonville Classic

The team will face Arizona and UAB in a premier early‑season tournament

The George Washington University women's basketball team is slated to compete in the Jacksonville Classic, a premier early‑season tournament that will take place in Jacksonville, Florida, from November 23 through November 25. The three‑day event will showcase a nine‑team field of Division I programs, many of which are ranked among the nation's top 25 and have earned recent postseason berths.

A Competitive Field

GW will meet Arizona for the second time in program history, seeking revenge after a narrow 69‑65 loss in their first encounter back in 2006. The team will also renew a series with UAB that began with a 74‑66 victory in the 1994 NCAA Tournament opening round, adding a narrative of historic matchups to the schedule.

All games will be held at 'The Reef', the state‑of‑the‑art arena that serves as the home court for the Florida State College Jacksonville Mantarays. The venue offers a modern setting that highlights the growing prominence of women's college basketball in the region.

Tickets and Schedule

Tournament passes and detailed game information are expected to be released in the coming weeks, providing fans with the opportunity to secure tickets for the event and individual matchups as excitement builds across the campus and the broader basketball community.
