A group of former University of Cincinnati basketball alumni has gathered in town this week for a game at Xavier's Cintas Center that will hopefully garner some fans.
Typically a UC vs. Xavier game would, but in this case, it's the single-elimination event, The Basketball Tournament (TBT). Both UC's entry, Nasty 'Nati, and Xavier's group, Zip'Em Up, play first-round games Friday. For the two rival squads to meet Saturday, they will need to advance.
Xavier is the host of the regional event and games from the Cintas Center will be streamed on ESPN+.
