(AP) — Newly crowned NCAA champion UConn will headline the 2024 Maui Invitational.

The field, announced on Tuesday, will be stacked once again, with North Carolina, Michigan State and Auburn joining the Huskies at the tiny Lahaina Civic Center from Nov. 25-27.

The field also will include Colorado, Dayton, Iowa State and Memphis.

UConn completed one of the NCAA Tournament’s most dominating runs on Monday night, rolling over San Diego State 76-59 for its sixth straight double-digit win in the bracket. The title was the Huskies’ fifth, all since 1999. UConn also has won two Maui Invitational titles in that span.

Arizona won the 2022 Maui Invitational in the tournament’s return to the islands after being played in Las Vegas and Asheville, North Carolina, the past two years.
