While the championship field for the 2016 2K Classic has been expected for months, the tournament's operator, the Gazelle Group, announced the full field, championship round dates and ticket information on Monday morning.

Marquette will join Michigan, Pittsburgh and SMU at Madison Square Garden on Nov. 17-18 for the championship rounds of the tournament. All four games at Madison Square Garden will be televised on ESPN networks.

Before heading to New York, each of the four championship contenders will host a pair of regional matchups. The possible regional matchups include games against IUPUI, Eastern Michigan, Gardner-Webb or Howard. Marquette is 3-0 against IUPUI, including an overtime win this year as part of the Legends Classic, and is 1-0 against Eastern Michigan. The Golden Eagles have never played against Gardner-Webb or Howard.

The full schedule and matchups for the 2K Classic will be announced at a later date. Tickets will go on sale on Wednesday and more information can be found at the tournament's website.
