The Contest against Southern will broadcast on MLB Network.
The Classic will feature seven HBCU programs, with a slate of games the weekend of February 24th-26th in New Orleans, Louisiana.
"We're honored to be in the tournament, especially because of the namesake of the tournament," said Florida A&M head coach Jamey Shouppe. "Andre's not only, obviously, a legendary baseball figure and a Hall of Famer, but a guy that walked the same campus that our players currently walk and practiced on some of the same fields that our guys practice on."
