This weekend the men’s and women’s basketball teams are both in action at home in Belk Arena. Students don’t return to campus for more than a week, so please come out to cheer on the ‘Cats and fill in the seats normally occupied by students.

The men’s basketball team opens their 18-game Atlantic 10 Conference slate Saturday at home against Duquesne. Tip-off is set for 6 p.m. in Belk Arena.

Women’s basketball kicks-off the New Year on Sunday at Belk Arena when we host George Mason at 2 pm. It is Military and First Responders Day. All active and retired personnel with a valid ID will receive two free tickets to the game as a thank you for all that you do in keeping our community safe!
