Duquesne’s men’s basketball schedule hasn’t been finalized, but the Dukes will play three games in five days in the Wade Houston Tipoff Classic at the University of Louisville’s KFC Yum! Center.
The games will be at 4 p.m. Nov. 30 against Little Rock, 1 p.m. Dec. 2 against UNC Greensboro and 11 a.m Dec. 4 against Winthrop. During the 2019-20 season, Little Rock finished 21-10, UNC Greensboro 23-9 and Winthrop 24-10.
The Dukes (21-9) had hoped to open the season with a multi-team event in Indianapolis prior to the trip to Louisville, but event organizers were unable to secure enough teams.
The schedule currently includes 21 games, including nine home games against Atlantic 10 teams. Tipoff times and venues for those games have not been released. The Dukes hope to open their new UPMC Cooper Fieldhouse before the end of the season.
The first scheduled Atlantic 10 game will be Dec. 30 at Saint Louis, but the Dukes also will travel to Richmond at a date and time to be determined.
