Per a release from the athletic department on Friday Providence College will honor the 1994 Big East Championship team during the Friars’ January 10th Big East tilt against the Georgetown Hoyas. That game is set to tip off at 12pm at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center.

Prior to the 2013-14 Providence Friars the 1993-94 team was the only other basketball team in school history to win a Big East Tournament Championship. No word on if any of the members of that team will be present but my guess is there will be some players represented. Some of the key players on that championship squad were Michael Smith, Dickey Simpkins, Eric Williams and Rob Phelps. The head coach was current Texas head coach Rick Barnes.
