2022 CIT Canceled

SEWARD, Neb. – For the second year in a row, the Concordia Invitational Tournament (CIT) has been put on hold. In a collective decision made by the administrations of the participating Concordias, the 2022 CIT has been canceled, as made official on Friday (Jan. 7). Concordia University, Nebraska was scheduled to host what would have been the 70th all-time CIT on Jan. 28-29, 2022. CUNE will retain the privilege of hosting CIT inside Friedrich Arena in January 2023. All pre-ordered online ticket sales for the now-canceled 2022 CIT will be reimbursed by Jan. 15.

As one of the nation's longest-running basketball tournaments, CIT was played for the first time in 1951 when it was staged in St. Louis, Mo. Prior to the 2020-21 basketball season, CIT had been played each year since 1975-76 when scheduling conflicts forced its cancellation.

Dates for the 2023 Concordia Invitational Tournament in Seward are Jan. 27-28. Friedrich Arena last hosted the event in 2017.
