  • Shockers in Paradise!

    My sources say the Shockers will follow up the trip to Hawaii next year with an invite to the Battle 4 Atlantis in 15. That is a big time tourney!

    Hope that is correct, I have heard similar rumors. So far Syracuse and Gonzaga have confirmed their participation in the Battle 4 Atlantis in 2015. I'm looking forward to watching WSU get a chance to play against a loaded field!

          '15 looks like a very good year for Shocker basketball.

              Hope that's true. That's the kind of tournament we need to be in.

                Even bigger news is that Depaul has just announced that they'll be participating in the Battle for Atlantis in 2015.

                  The mountains are calling, and I must go.

                    Maybe that's part of WSU's negotiations: "You bring DePaul too, or we aren't coming!!"

                    Either that, or DePaul is trying to get a feel for a future conference rival ;)

                        Honolulu Dec 14; Atlantis Nov '15 and Maui Nov '17. Still waiting on something special for 2016.

                          I believe Old Spice Classic was rumored to take place between the 2014 and 2017 tournaments.

                            That would be a good one.

                            Preseason NIT would be fun too.

                              Hi,
                              Been reading and enjoying for quite a while. Decided it was time to join as well.
                              Just wanted to clerify. Atlantis will take place in 2016. Sounds like on the mainland for 2015
