Here’s a date that was floating all summer.

Now, William & Mary has gone ahead and confirmed it.

SEE RELATED:

The Tribe will visit Comcast Center on Dec. 30 in their final nonconference game of the season. It’ll be the schools’ first meeting since December 2001.

William & Mary reached the CAA title game in 2008, but regressed to 10-20 (with an RPI of 245) a season ago. So again, this might not be much of an RPI help for Maryland.

The updated partial schedule:

Nov. 3: Indiana, Pa. (exhibition)
Nov. 17: Fairfield
Nov. 23: at Chaminade, 9:30
Nov. 24: vs. Cincinnati/Vanderbilt at Maui Invitational
Nov. 25: vs. Arizona/Colorado/Gonzaga/Wisconsin at Maui Invitational

Dec. 1: at Indiana, 7:30
Dec. 6: vs. Villanova at Verizon Center (BB&T Classic), 7:30
Dec. 22: Winston-Salem State
Dec. 27: Florida Atlantic, 8
Dec. 30: William & Mary
