Preview: John Bach Classic

The John Bach Classic is one of the first NCAA basketball events to begin this season. This round-robin tournament features four DI schools that all play against one another. Each of the four schools will also have a different non-DI opponent scheduled for this event. The non-DI schools include City College of New York (CCNY), Westminster-Pennsylvania, Ave Maria and St. Joseph’s-Brooklyn. The dates are spread throughout the entire month of November with most of the participating DI schools located along the United States’ eastern coast. Fordham will be the tournament host for DI one-on-one games, as they reveal a new look for their basketball locker rooms.
