Northwestern added to Charleston Classic

Sorry for replying to my own post. ...

just found out a few minutes ago courtesy of Chris Dobbertean (bloggingthebracket.com) that Northwestern has been added to the Charleston Classic. Expect the Wildcats to be placed in the opposite bracket of Georgia Tech. The two sqauds already square off in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge. The Charleston Classic's headliner in 2011 will be Final Four participant VCU.

The only B1G squad yet to be linked to some sort of tournament is newcomer Nebraska.
