COOKEVILLE, Tenn. -- Absent for the past two weeks due to travel
and the holidays, the weekly Tennessee Tech Basketball Sidelines
Lunch resumes Tuesday in the Eagles Nest of Eblen Center. The
event, featuring Golden Eagle coaches Sytia Messer and Steve Payne,
is open to the public.
Each weekly lunch begins at 11:30 a.m. and the coaches begin
speaking at 12:10 p.m. They will discuss upcoming games as well as
take a look back at recent action for their teams. The coaches use
video highlights to help illustrate their comments. Each week's
lunch is wrapped up before 1 p.m.
The cost of the event is $10 per person, which includes lunch,
beverage and dessert.
The two basketball teams have been doing quite a bit of travling
during the past few weeks, but both return to the court in Eblen
Center this week. The men's team hosts Tennessee State Thursday at
7 p.m. and the women's team will entertain TSU Monday at 7 p.m.
In between, the Golden Eagles will host a doubleheader on Saturday
against Morehead State with the women's contest at 5:30 p.m. and
the men's at 7:30 p.m.
