LAHAINA, Hawaii (AP) — The 2011 EA Sports Maui Invitational will have its usual impressive field and four more teams.

Next year’s tournament will feature defending national champion Duke, a four-time Maui Invitational champion, along with past national champions Kansas, UCLA, Michigan and Georgetown.

In addition to the 12 games played at the Lahaina Civic Center from Nov. 21-23, there will be 11 games played on the U.S. mainland, the first expansion for the Maui Invitational since it went from four to eight teams in 1986.

The four teams that will play in the mainland games from Nov. 11-17 will be announced at a later date.

The other schools playing in Maui next year are Tennessee, Memphis and Chaminade, the Division II host school.
