March 20, 2001
7:30 pm
Virginia Commonwealth University
Alltel Pavilion at the Stuart C. Siegel Center

The inaugural "Commonwealth Classic" will occur Tuesday March 20, 2001. The game marks the first time high school seniors representing the Central and Tidewater Regions will compete head-to-head in an all- star format. A panel of coaches and media representing both regions selected the teams. The game is open to players in the Boys' AAA, AA, A and private schools of each region.

"The Classic" has been sanctioned by the NCAA and will be played under college basketball rules; however, rather than play 20-minute halves, the game will be played in 4-12 minute quarters.

'The Classic" is sponsored by Omni Sports Group, LLC 116 N. Center Street, Ashland, Virginia 23005. All proceeds from "The Classic" will benefit the Boys and Girls Clubs of Metro Richmond. Join us for a celebration of Virginia High School Basketball. For ticket information, please contact the VCU Siegel Center Ticket Office at 804-828-7267. Tickets are $8.00.
