Details begin to emerge about 2013-14 men’s basketball schedule

Just days after the Colonials bowed out of the postseason with a loss to Massachusetts in Brooklyn, details are already emerging about the team’s schedule next season.

Athletic director Patrick Nero sent an email to fans that outlined some of the planned opponents for the 2013-14 season. The season will round out the home-away-home series with Kansas State, as well as slate the Colonials against Georgia, Rutgers and Maryland.

“An early season trip to Anaheim for a tournament that includes Miami, Marquette, Creighton, Arizona State and San Diego State will be a terrific opportunity for our maturing team,” the email read.

That tournament is the DirectTV Classic, held over Thanksgiving weekend. Competition proceeds in a bracket form, meaning GW won’t face all of the above programs, but will have a chance to advance through the eight-team field. The College of Charleston is the seventh program in the tournament, and the eighth will be announced at a later date.
