The Eddie G. Robinson Foundation is bringing its America's Youth Classic basketball tournament to Gallagher-Iba Arena Nov. 19-20.
Tickets are now on sale for the America's Youth Classic and may be purchased through the OSU Athletics Department.
The America's Youth Classic is sponsored by the Eddie G. Robinson Foundation, not by OSU, therefore, the Classic is not included in student basketball ticket packages.
Profits raised by the tournament will go towards scholarships for eighth graders and high school seniors.
The Eddie G. Robinson Foundation is a non-profit organization founded by the Robinson Family in 1997 to serve as a catalyst for the fulfillment of the hopes and dreams of the youth of America.
In a celebrated career spanning more than five decades, Eddie Robinson has received national recognition for his commitment to excellence and to integrity both on and off the football field.
The Foundation exists to continue the lifelong legacy and commitment of its namesake in serving others and the community.
The Classic will feature the Oklahoma State and Oral Roberts men's basketball team, in their season-opening games. ORU plays Idaho in the opener on Friday, Nov. 19, at 6:20 p.m., and OSU hosts Appalachian State at 8:40 p.m. On Saturday, ORU plays Appalachian State at 6 p.m. followed by OSU vs. Idaho at 8:30 p.m.
Fans may purchase general admission tickets at $20 per night. Students may purchase the same tickets for $15 per night.
Those interested may call the OSU athletics ticket office at (877) ALL-4-OSU or (405) 744-5745.
