After a highly successful debut in 2011, the directors of athletics at Butler, Indiana, Notre Dame and Purdue have agreed to a two-year extension of the Crossroads Classic that will keep one of college basketball’s premier non-conference events in Indianapolis in 2013 and 2014.

addition to the originally-scheduled date of Dec. 15, 2012, the Crossroads Classic will now also be held on Dec. 14, 2013, and Dec. 20, 2014. Game times and ticket information will be announced at a later date.

A sellout crowd of more than 19,000 fans witnessed the inaugural Crossroads Classic last December, as Butler and Indiana were victorious at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. Both games were also televised nationally, with CBS broadcasting the Butler-Purdue matchup and ESPN2 airing the Indiana-Notre Dame contest.
