ANN ARBOR -- The first, last, and only time Michigan played George Washington in men's basketball, the Wolverines got one step closer to a national championship appearance. Twenty-five years later, it appears the two programs will meet again with lesser stakes.
Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reported Friday that Michigan will face George Washington in the opening round of the Hall of Fame Tip-Off Tournament on Nov. 18 at Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut.
MLive reached out to both schools to confirm but has yet to receive a response. Several weeks ago, a Michigan athletics spokesperson confirmed Michigan's participation in the event.
