UConn game to start at 9:30 pm Wed

The Preseason NIT announced Friday that the UConn-Georgia Tech semifinal Wednesday at Madison Square Garden will be the late game. Utah plays Texas Tech in the opener at 7 p.m. with the UConn game to begin at approximately 9:30 p.m.

Calhoun said UConn has still not received word from the NCAA on the status of freshman forward Charlie Villanueva, who has sat out the first two games as the NCAA investigates whether he received travel expense money while working out for two NBA teams last summer.
