Alabama to participate in 2019 Battle 4 Atlantis

Alabama is one of eight teams that will participate in the 2019 Battle 4 Atlantis.

The field was announced on Friday, with North Carolina, Oregon, Michigan, Gonzaga, Iowa State, Seton Hall, and Southern Miss also included.

While the bracket has not yet been released, the event typically takes place in late November.

No. 4 Virginia won the 2018 edition of the tournament, as Tony Bennett’s squad scored a 53-46 win over Wisconsin in the championship game.

The Crimson Tide will return to the court on Nov. 26 as they’ll host Murray State.
