Still no early season tournament.....crazy

 

[MasonFanatic]

Opening night is a Saturday? That's disappointing, we've had so much success drawing a huge crowd by opening on a Friday night...

Probably for TV reasons, or there was a schedule conflict of some sort.

maybe Towson didn't want to fight Friday traffic and figures Sat's traffic is better.

At least the likely hood of snow in early November is very minimal.

Home games so far by my count:
Nov. 12 Towson (Opening night)
Dec. 3 Mercer
Dec ?? Longwood
??? James Madison

Seems like we will still get 1 or 2 more home OOC games. If Mason does not partake in an early season tourney, maybe 3 more OOC games.

Don't forget Mt. St. Mary's in Nov and Morgan State in late Dec.

 

[MasonSAE4]

Anyone know when Penn St. is? Best friend from home is getting back from deployment sometime around early Dec. He went to State and I was hoping to travel to that one if he's home.

 

[MasonFanatic]

If we are in fact playing at the Palestra, and if the A10 is staying with 18 conference games, then I believe we now know the entire non-conference schedule.

Nov. 12 Towson (Opening night)
Nov. ?? Mt. St. Mary's
Early Season MTE (TBA)
Dec. 3 Mercer
Dec ?? Longwood
Dec ?? Morgan State
??? James Madison
??? at Northern Iowa
??? at Penn
??? at Penn State

Going with the weather it will most likely be 75 degrees in November. Perfect time to tailgate

I know the girl who just finished being student body president and she was saying the other day that increasing the number of tailgates is for sure happening. So maybe that's why it's on a Saturday?

Thats what many students are pushing for. University Life is just the big obstacle in the way.
