Immaculata, the defending national champion, beat Queens, 65-61, in the first game of a doubleheader that Saturday afternoon, and most of the 11,969 spectators left the building before or during the second game, between the men’s teams from Fairfield and Massachusetts. To commemorate the coming 40th anniversary, Queens and Immaculata will meet again Sunday morning at the Garden to open the annual Maggie Dixon Classic before Auriemma’s Connecticut team plays St. John’s.
