The nine-game baseball tournament is putting six HBCUs up against each other including Houston’s Prairie View A&M University and Texas Southern University.
Other schools on the roster include Southern University, Grambling State, Jackson State, and Mississippi Valley State University.
Additionally, 2,500 fans each day will receive an exclusive Travis Scott Bobblehead presented by Cactus Jack Foundation, according to a release.
