No exhibitions for FAMU women's basketball team


TALLAHASSEE, Florida - Fans will get their first look at the Florida A&M women’s basketball team – laden with junior college transfers – on Nov. 13.

It won’t be the customary exhibition, though. A handful of closed scrimmages will suffice, said assistant coach Fred Murray who put the 2012-2013 schedule together.

“I think they (the scrimmages) are going to give us a chance to show where we are with practically a new team going into the season,” Murray said. “When you lose what we’ve lost as far as experience we know we’re going to be kind of starting over again. Going the closed-scrimmage route is going to show us a lot about what kind of (team) we’re going to put on the floor.”

The complete schedule is still unofficial, pending the Rattlers’ opponents in two tournaments and the search for a possible opponent for a Nov. 16 game.
