Women's basketball fans won't need to wait very long for one of the most anticipated games of the 2013-14 season as UConn will travel to play Duke in the Jimmy V Classic on Dec. 17. The game will tip at 7 p.m. and be televised on ESPN2.

It's a very real possibility that the teams will be ranked first and second when they meet as UConn returns its top three scorers (Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis, Breanna Stewart and Stefanie Dolson) and returns players who accounted for more than 80 percent of the scoring and rebounding for a team which won the program's eighth national title. Duke will be returning its top seven scorers led by All-Americans Chelsea Gray and Elizabeth Williams.

Tickets will go on sale Tuesday, Oct. 15 at goduke.com/tickets or by calling (919) 681-BLUE. For additional information, please visit http://jimmyvclassic.com/.
