(St. Louis, MO) – Walter McCarty’s first year Evansville’s schedule is demanding and impressive. With at least three games against NCAA Tournament teams from last season.
Power Six opponents Xavier and Illinois are part of the Maui Classic participation. Ohio Valley Conference powers Murray State (26-6) and Jacksonville State (23-13) are December adversaries.
The Purple Aces play three games with Mid-American members Ball State (19-13) and Miami of Ohio (16-18). Their home-and-home encounters with the Cardinals pit the two Indiana based schools in a bragging rights competition. (See ‘McCarty Party Has Started‘ for some early insights on the head coach’s thoughts about building a schedule)
Other opponents include Mountain West member Wyoming and the Horizon League’s Green Bay, both visiting Evansville’s Ford Center.

I haven't heard, nor do I know, how does this apply to the typical 'foreign' basketball player that is most often over 19?
Obviously, this is a sentimental and not a ‘spreadsheet’ notion, but would hate to see @MVCsports change the #ArchMadness format from the traditional ‘family reunion’ feel by cutting teams from the experience. #FatherHarry
Another nice @MVCsports basketball schedule announcement. #FatherHarry . .
Congrats to @ISURedbirdGolf. T.J. Barger sets a school record. Pietro Pontiggia records the Redbirds' second-ever top 20 finish at a regional. The team finishes tent in the region which is tied for the program's best regional finish! #FatherHarry
