St. John’s to Play in Coaches vs. Cancer (UPDATED)

Maurice Harkless and St. John’s vaunted 2011 recruiting class will step into the limelight for a series of high-profile games next season.

In addition to hosting UCLA at Madison Square Garden and visiting Duke at Cameron Indoor Stadium, the Johnnies will participate in the 2K Sports Classic Benefiting Coaches vs. Cancer, ZAGSBLOG has learned.

Arizona and two other teams are also expected to compete in the event. Arizona features local products MoMo Jones, Kevin Parrom and Sidiki Johnson.

The regional rounds run Nov. 7-11 with the championship rounds Nov. 17-18 at the Garden.

This past year, Pittsburgh beat Texas, 68-66, in the final. Maryland and Illinois also made the trip to the Garden.
