[QUOTE="Cuyahoga Falls Eers_rivals, post: 131686421, member: 1759980"] The Other Charleston (South Carolina) Classic basketball tournament November 18, 19 and 21 stirs up some good memories for me. The field includes Marquette, St. Bonaventure, Temple and West Virginia. The 4 saw each other regularly decades ago in the days when the Big East was one of the super leagues in college basketball before the massive conference realignments. Only Georgetown will be missing the reunion. Also in the 2021 tournament are Clemson, Ole Miss, Boise State and Elon, wherever that is. As always, Huggins manages, with the help of whoever is WVU’s AD, to get a solid early-season tournament to test Huggins Heroes. There will be 12 games in 3 days. The last 2 undefeated teams will play for the title. I couldn't stand not knowing, so I looked up Elon. It's in Elon, North Carolina. After 11 seasons in the Southern Conference, the home for WVU till the bluebloods split off to form the ACC, Elon switched to the Colonial in 2014. Elon has NEVER won a post-season tournament game -- Division II in 1997, College Insider in 2013 and NAIA 3 times in 1952, 1956 and 1957. Elon is 300 miles north of The Other Charleston. Actually there are NINE Other Charlestons -- in Arizona, Arkansas, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine and Mississippi. The only one I care about, obviously, is in Kanawha County. [/QUOTE]
