Cornell in New York

As we previously reported, Cornell is participating in Madison Square Garden's annual Holiday Festival between December 20-21. The Big Red will play in two games with St. John's hosting the event. The other tournament participants include Davidson and Hofstra. MSG Network is expected to provide television coverage. Cornell opens the event against Davidson on December 20 and will face either St. John's or Hofstra the following day.

Cornell was an attractive participant to Madison Square Garden because of Cornell's deep connections to New York. In addition to a large alumni base in the New York City area, Cornell University maintains a major physical presence in New York. The following schools, departments and centers are located in Manhattan.
