Network, Time & Site Selected for Jimmy V Women’s Classic on December 5

The Jimmy V Women’s Classic Presented by Corona – previously announced for Saturday, Dec. 5 between three-time defending national champion and No. 1 nationally ranked UConn and Final Four participant and sixth-ranked Notre Dame – will be played at 5:15 p.m. ET on ESPN from Gampel Pavilion in Storrs, Conn. The rivalry series dates back to the 1995-96 season when the Fighting Irish joined the former BIG EAST with the Huskies leading the all-time series 33-11.

The 2015 Jimmy V Women’s Classic will be the second consecutive year that UConn and Notre Dame will meet in this annual event. Notre Dame will be participating for the second straight time, while UConn will be playing for the fifth straight year and eighth time overall.

The early-season event is part of ESPN’s Jimmy V Week for Cancer Research, which is held yearly in early December, across all domestic ESPN platforms to drive awareness of and donations to The V Foundation for Cancer Research.
