EKU TO PLAY CHARITY BASKETBALL EXHIBITION GAME AT GEORGIA

RICHMOND, Ky. – September 29, 2023

Eastern Kentucky University’s men’s basketball team will play an exhibition game at the University of Georgia on Oct. 30.  Proceeds from the game will benefit the American Red Cross of Georgia’s disaster relief efforts due to the recent impact of Hurricane Idalia on parts of South Georgia.

The game will begin at 6:30 p.m. and will be played at UGA’s Stegeman Coliseum in Athens.  General admission tickets for the public will be $5 and go on sale on Oct. 16, with seating for the game on a first-come, first-served basis.

Four starters and a total of 11 players return from EKU’s 2022-23 team that finished the season with a 23-14 record and advanced to the championship of the College Basketball Invitational (CBI).  EKU returns 84 percent of its scoring, 74 percent of its rebounds, 88 percent of its assists, 74 percent of its steals and 76 percent of its blocks from 2022-23.
