About the Maggie Dixon Classic

The Maggie Dixon Classic is an annual nonconference women's basketball event played in honor of former Army women's basketball head coach Maggie Dixon.
Dixon led Army to its first-and-only Patriot League Championship and NCAA Tournament in 2006 before passing away suddenly just weeks later due to an undiagnosed heart arrhythmia.
Dixon is the lone coach in the history of Army men's and women's basketball to guide a team to the Big Dance, a feat made all the more impressive when considering Bob Knight and Mike Krzyzewski once paced the sidelines in West Point.
The inaugural Maggie Dixon Classic took place in West Point in November 2006. The Classic was then held inside Madison Square Garden from 2007-2015.
The Classic relocated to Funky Town in 2018 ahead of TCU men's basketball head coach Jamie Dixon's third year helming his alma mater. The Horned Frogs hosted the Black Knights in the event's first playing in Fort Worth. TCU won the game 63-38. The Frogs faced Louisiana Tech in the most recent playing of the event, defeating the Lady Techsters 92-41 on Dec. 15
Jamie Dixon had this to say ahead of the 2018 Maggie Dixon Classic between TCU and Army: "The first basketball Maggie probably remembers is watching me play at TCU. I was 17 when I came here, she was 5, so I'm sure she remembers going to watch the games at the local pizza parlor to watch on the satellite at the bar. It was the only way you could get them back in the day. ... This event is important to women's basketball. It's a premier game. It has name recognition and that's why we want to keep it going."
