Pairings Announced for Greater Victoria Invitational Presented by the City of Langford

The pairings have been announced for the Greater Victoria Invitational presented by the City of Langford women's tournament, and the Bowling Green State University women's basketball team will meet Green Bay in first-round action.

The eight-team tournament, which will be played November 28-30 at the University of Victoria's CARSA Performance Gym, is a collaboration between bdG Sports, University of Victoria and the Greater Victoria Sport Tourism Commission. The pairings for the three-day tournament were announced today by bdG Sports, the Kentucky-based owner and operator of the event.

Recent NCAA Final Four stalwarts Mississippi State, Stanford and Syracuse are part of the field, which also includes BGSU, Green Bay, Cal Baptist, Houston and San Francisco.

"Stanford, Mississippi State and Syracuse have combined for four NCAA Final Fours and three appearances in the National Championship game over the past four years and to have all three in one tournament is very special," said Debbie Antonelli, ESPN analyst and Greater Victoria Invitational presented by the City of Langford Tournament Director. "Between those three teams and some very talented programs in the rest of the field, basketball fans in B.C. will see some of the very best talent in college basketball at UVic."
