Gameday Information Announced for Men's Hoops

BOCA RATON, Fla. -- The Florida Atlantic men's basketball team is set for its much-anticipated home opener at Eleanor R. Baldwin Arena on Tuesday night.

"I know Head Coach Dusty May and his team are excited, but it's been an incredible time for our entire department in preparing for this season. We can't thank our fans and our incredible students enough for creating one of the best atmospheres in college basketball and we look forward to seeing everyone again as we run it back."
