The Pioneer Valley Tip-Off Classic Presented by Oak View Group is a student-run high school basketball showcase featuring some of the best talent in the Pioneer Valley! The PVTO was started in 2011 by Scott Moses '15 and Pat Sallet '15, both students at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and it continues to be entirely student-run by the McCormack Student Leaders Club today. The PVTO is held over a weekend each December in the Mullins Center on the University of Massachusetts Amherst campus, where we strive to create a professional environment for fans and players alike.​​
