Dolphins To Compete In 2025 Sunshine Slam Tournament

PRINCETON, N.J. -- Tickets are now on sale for the Sunshine Slam men's college basketball tournament, which will take place November 24-25 at the Ocean Center in Daytona Beach.

Tickets may be purchased in advance at Ticketmaster.com or on the day of competition at the Ocean Center box office.

The field for the event consists of Florida Atlantic, George Mason, Loyola Marymount, and Ohio playing in the Beach bracket and Jacksonville, Bethune-Cookman, Pacific, and Stony Brook competing in the Ocean bracket.

The format for the Sunshine Slam will consist of a pair of semifinal round games in each bracket on November 24 and a championship and consolation game in each bracket on November 25. Champions will be crowned for both the Beach and Ocean brackets as well as all-tournament teams being announced for each. Match-ups and schedules will be announced at a later date. 

In the Sunshine Slam this past November, Clemson beat Penn State and San Francisco to win the Beach Bracket championship, while Radford took down Purdue Fort Wayne and Chicago State to win the Ocean bracket.

Jacksonville will be making its return to Daytona Beach's Ocean Center for a second consecutive year, after appearing in the venue for the College Basketball Invitational postseason tournament last season.

Bethune-Cookman is coming off a 17-16 season that included a win at USF and a victory in the SWAC tournament. Pacific finished with nine wins last season while Stony Brook won eight.
