College of Charleston Cougars Play Early-Bird Game in ESPN's 24-Hours of Basketball -- CofC

The College of Charleston Cougars beat the Morehead State Eagles in front of a nationally-televised audience part of ESPN's 2011 24-Hours of College Basketball Tip-Off Marathon on ESPN. The game started at 8 a.m. And students came in their pajamas and got free donuts and coffee on the way into the Arena. The game was billed as Breakfast with Bobby -- referencing legendary coach Bobby Cremins.

The Cougars will play on regional or national television 12 times during the 2011-12 season. They will make their first appearance on ESPN since a loss to Chattanooga in the SoCon Tournament championship game on March 9, 2009. Last year, CofC made a school-record 22 appearances on the tube.
