RICHMOND, Kentucky — The South Carolina State men’s basketball team will compete in the EKU Hoops Classic beginning Friday, Nov. 20-Sunday, Nov. 22 at the McBrayer Arena in Richmond, Ky.The six-game, three-day event will feature host team Eastern Kentucky, South Carolina State, Ball State and Longwood.
“This weekend’s games present a great challenge and opportunity for our basketball program,” said S.C. State head coach Murray Garvin. “Three games in 3 days will be a test for our program. I believe that this format will serve as great preparation for how things can end up in March during the MEAC Tournament.
“It will demonstrate how we as coaches, players, managers, athletic trainers, etc., will have to prepare for quick turnarounds and bounce back for another game in less than 24 hours. All three teams are well-coached and we plan to take it one possession at a time.”
