RICHMOND, Va. – VCU will battle NIT Champion Seton Hall on Nov. 21 to kick-off the Shriners Children's Hospital Charleston Classic in Charleston, S.C., ESPN revealed Thursday with the release of the full tournament bracket.
 
The Rams and Pirates will tip-off at 5 p.m. on ESPN2 at Charleston's TD Arena. VCU will face Vanderbilt or Nevada on Friday, Nov. 22, and the Rams will conclude the tournament on Sunday, Nov. 24 against one of a group of potential opponents that includes FAU, Oklahoma State, Miami and Drake.
