'N SLAM
DIVISION I COLLEGE HOOP CLASSICS, DECEMBER 26-31!
The tournaments
fill fast so book early for 2009 and beyond!
Since 2001, this 4-team,
2-game Counting tournament has been held every year from Dec. 26-31. Thanks
to overwhelming demand, the tournament
expanded in 2005 to eight teams. San Diego State joined USD as
a tournament host, creating two separate four-team brackets, the Torero Division
(USD host) and the Aztec Division (SDSU host).
 The
fabulous Westin Gaslamp Quarter is the official tournament hotel, right in the heart
of the famous San Diego GasLamp District.
A visit to the San Diego
Zoo, a ride on the famous San Diego Trolley, and the great shopping and restaurants
of the adjacent Horton Plaza Mall round out a perfect tournament experience.
