FRESNO, Calif. - Off to an 0-2 start for the first time in 40 years, Fresno State hosts the 25th annual McCaffrey Classic on Friday and Saturday at the Save Mart Center.
The tournament marks the Bulldogs' first home games in the new Save Mart Center.
Following is the schedule for this year's Classic:
Friday, Dec. 5
Saturday, Dec. 6

Tickets are available for the Classic through the Save Mart Center Box Office, by calling (559) 485-TIXS and at www.ticketmaster.com.
The Bulldogs own a 33-11 all-time record in the McCaffrey Classic and haven't lost a game since 1995, when they fell to Princeton, which is also playing in this year's tournament. Due to vacated wins in McCaffrey games in 1998 and 2000 due to use of an ineligible player, the current Fresno State winning streak in its tournament stands at 10, dating to that loss to Princeton in the 1995 championship game.
