Toppers Open Season Friday

At Freed-Hardeman Classic

 

            The weeks of preparation have given way to hours now as the Topper men's basketball team prepares to open its season this Friday and Saturday at the Freed-Hardeman Classic in Henderson, TN.

 

            On Friday evening the Toppers take on the highly-regarded Auburn University-Montgomery Senators in the 6 p.m. opening game of the classic. AUM is a traditional NAIA powerhouse and a perennial fixture at the national NAIA tournament in Kansas City.

 

            Then Saturday afternoon at 2 p.m. Blue Mountain draws Harris Stowe State from St. Louis, MO.

 

This opening weekend of action is a catalyst for a busy week of basketball competition for the Toppers. On Monday evening, November 2, BMC hosts Oakwood University at 8 p.m. in the first home contest of the season. And this is followed by a Thursday home game against in-state rival Belhaven College, also with an 8 p.m. tip-off. Lady Topper games precede the men at 6 p.m. each of these nights.

 

Then Saturday it is the big annual Homecoming festivities with the women's game against William Carey University scheduled to start at 2 p.m. and the men's game at 4 p.m.
