Evansville’s Strong Schedule

(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.

Three more road wins so far in @ValleyHoops as @BradleyUMBB @BelmontMBB & @UIC_MBB capture road wins. Looks like @DrakeBulldogsMB will do so too. #FatherHarry

Well @RacersWBB followed the men's example and swept Iowa in the @ValleyHoops race! Racers are 6-1 & if @BelmontWBB holds on to their Iowa sweep, the Bruins and Racers will be tied for first. What a trip for those two teams! #FatherHarry

After today's action, @EIUWBB is 8-0 in @OVCSports play. 4 teams @usiwbb @TTUWBB @LRTrojans @LindenwoodWBB are tied at 6-2. Six other teams are under .500. Great race to the finish lies ahead. #FatherHarry

Really entertaining game between @BelmontMBB & @UEAthletics_MBB. Under four minutes left in a one point game. Gabriel Pozzato back in the Aces' lineup. Rogers is playing like I've expected. Triples are dropping. It's fun and @kylejpeach bringing it on #ThePlus #FatherHarry
