Colgate to Cable Car
(Correction added 5-29 at 11:17 a.m.: Bucknell beat Boston University at last year's Cable Car, not Boston COllege. Thanks to the e-mailers who caught that)

Scroll way down to the bottom of this story about George Washington guard Danilo Pinnock's decision to sign with an agent and stay in the NBA draft, and you will find some GW schedule information, including word that the Colonials will be in Santa Clara's Cable Car Classic next season and mention that Colgate will also be in the four-team field. The fourth team will be Air Force, a team expected to be very good next season, making for a dandy little four-team field that ought to boost the Raiders RPI nicely even if they lose both games.

It is the second year in a row that the 40-year-old event has included a Patriot League team. Last season Bucknell went 1-1 there, beating Boston University before losing to the host school in the final. Holy Cross also has played in the Cable Car (twice), most recently in 1993. Army and Navy have also played in the tournament, but their appearances were in the pre-Patriot League era.
