The Crosstown Collaborative, an ongoing partnership between players from the University of Cincinnati and Xavier University, will debut a unique weekend this summer dedicated to exclusive experiences with the current men's basketball teams.
It will take place July 15-17 at Fifth Arena and Cintas Center.
Throughout the weekend, players from both teams will make appearances and participate at a private golf outing, an adult basketball fantasy experience, the Prasco basketball impact camp at the Dudley Taft Boys & Girls Club with celebrity host Kane Brown, and the Skyline Chili Fan Fest Alumni Game featuring former players from both universities.
