Huskies selected to participate in 2025 SCB Hall of Fame Classic

KANSAS CITY, MO. – Friday Small College Basketball announced the 10 teams who will participate in the prestigious Small College Basketball Hall of Fame Classic and among those programs will be the Michigan Tech men's basketball team, who will be making their debut appearance in the event to start the 2025-26 season.

The Huskies will head to Lakeland, Florida, for the event on Nov. 1-2 facing Dallas Baptist for the season opener on Saturday, Nov. 1 before taking on Lenoir-Rhyne Sunday. The Patriots were a Final Four team while the Bears made the Elite Eight a season ago.

"The 2025 Small College Basketball Hall of Fame Classic is going to be fantastic," stated McCarthy. "We have some of the top teams, and some of the top players, in all of NCAA Division II that will be participating.  The field has seven first-time participants and represents nine states and eight different conferences. We are very grateful to the D2 Conference Commissioners Association, Visit Central Florida Sports and Florida Southern College for their tremendous support of the Small College Basketball Hall of Fame Classic, which has become the most prestigious in-season event in NCAA Division II basketball."

 2025 marks the fourth straight year that the event will feature 10 teams. The Hall of Fame Classic started in 2016 in Evansville, IN. The HOF Classic would then move to St. Joseph, MO, before heading to Lakeland, FL in 2022. During the COVID year of 2020 the event did not take place.

The HOF Classic is one of the most prominent events in NCAA Division II men's basketball. Once again this year, there will be five games on Saturday, followed by five games on Sunday. Below are the teams and matchups for this year's event. For more information on the Hall of Fame Classic and Small College basketball, please head to smallcollegebasketball.com.
