MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The University of Memphis will play Creighton at 7:30 p.m. Friday in a second-round game in the National Invitation Tournament at the CHI Health Center in Omaha, Nebraska.

The NIT released the date and time late Wednesday, a day after the Tigers defeated San Diego, 74-60, in an opening-round game at FedExForum. The UofM is playing in its first postseason since 2014.

If the Tigers (22-13) advance, they would play a quarterfinal game on either March 26 or 27 on the road.
