CIAA has perfected tournament atmosphere after 100 years
The CIAA Tournament is in it's 100th year and this year in Charlotte, it has something for everyone - on and off the court.
Posted — UpdatedOn the court, Raleigh-area teams are the favorites for both the women's and men's brackets. The Shaw University men's team, ranked No. 5 in the nation in Division II, plays their first game Thursday against Fayetteville State. The Shaw women have already made it to the semifinal on Friday where they will play Bowie State.
Off the court, there are non-stop events to occupy your time in Charlotte; you couldn't possibly do everything in a weekend. Honestly, basketball is the last thing on many people's minds at the tournament who are seen socializing with old classmates, teammates and rivals.
I am personally waiting to see the perennially best-dressed Mr. CIAA. He wears new suit for every game- sometimes every half. Trust you won't see these suits anywhere else. They are the most classic, stylish suits you will ever see.
On and off the court, it is expected to be an exciting tournament weekend in Charlotte.
