George Mason coach Jim Larranaga will get a chance to give his youthful squad some more experience later this month when it plays in the CollegeInsider.com Tournament. Mason will host a first-round game against an opponent to be determined on Tuesday, March 16, at the Patriot Center. The second annual event includes 16 teams from mid-major conferences.

“With 10 players in the freshman and sophomore class, it is important for our young team to gain the experience that only a postseason tournament can provide,” said Larranaga in a statement. “The CIT presents us with an excellent opportunity to give our players a taste of the postseason.”
