The UConn men's basketball team will be participating in the Jimmy V Classic, the biggest one day charity event in all of college basketball.

Longtime ESPN announcer Dick Vitale returned to call his first game in two years in February after getting vocal cords surgery last year during his latest battle with cancer.

UConn Huskies coach Dan Hurley attended the 20th annual Dick Vitale Gala on Friday. The gala is an annual event that is held to raise money for the foundation's cancer research fund.
