The National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) announced that it will sponsor a senior all-star game in Division III much like the ones that already exist in Division I and II. The game will be played this season at the Division III men’s basketball championships on March 19 and 20, 2010 at the Salem Civic Center in Salem, Va.
The game will be played on Saturday, March 20 at 10 a.m. and will replace the consolation game. Two ten-man teams will comprise the rosters for the game, with two players coming from each of the eight regions in Division III and two each from the two semifinal teams that do not make the championship game. Coaches will be selected from among past and present recipients of the NABC Division III Outstanding Service awards.
The committee for selecting the participants will include a representative from each of the eight regions of Division III. University of Chicago head coach Mike McGrath will chair the selection committee.
