The Spartans will now take on the Arizona Wildcats in Honolulu on Hawaii’s campus.
Michigan State’s appearance in the 2016 Armed Forces Classic will take place at a different location.
The event was originally scheduled to take place at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, but has been relocated to the Stan Sheriff Center on the University of Hawaii campus in Honolulu. The move is being made to provide basketball fans of both the military and the community an opportunity to see the games up close.
“ESPN is honored to continue the tradition of the Armed Forces Classic,” said Clint Overby, vice president, ESPN Events.
