WASHINGTON, Pa. – Tickets are now on sale for the 2025 Great Lakes Invitational which will be hosted at Washington & Jefferson College on Nov. 21-22. The two-day, eight-team event will be contested inside the Salvitti Family Gymnasium.

The Great Lakes Invitational, created by Ryan Whitnable, has become known as one of the premier events on the NCAA Division III basketball calendar. The annual event brings four teams from within the Great Lakes Region together with four teams from elsewhere around the country for one great weekend of basketball.

"The 8th Great Lakes Invitational continues the tradition of bringing together Division III's best programs to one of the level's best venues," Whitnable said. "Hosting this event at the home of one of the Great Lakes' most successful programs is perfectly fitting of this crown jewel event of the Division III basketball calendar."
