EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) – Michigan State and North Carolina are moving forward with plans to play a basketball game aboard an aircraft carrier on Veterans’ Day.
Michigan State athletic director Mark Hollis tells The Associated Press that the long-discussed game is to take place this year in San Diego’s harbor. The schools have been working with Morale Entertainment to produce the event, which will include a concert on the converted flight deck.
Hollis says organizers are in discussions with television networks and potential sponsors to ensure the event is financially viable.
Hollis says he’s “very pleased” with the progress his school has made with the Pentagon, Morale Entertainment and North Carolina.
