COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – Whether it's the afternoon or the
evening, Tennessee Tech basketball fans can brace themselves for
some non-stop action this winter in Eblen Center as the
women's and men's teams host a total of 31 games on
their home floor.
The tipoff times for Tech's 2010-11 home schedule were
announced this week and feature four afternoon contests and 27 in
the evenings.
As a general rule, most of Tech's single games will begin at
7 p.m. while home doubleheaders will typically have 5:30 and 7:30
p.m. starting times.
The action begins on Thursday, Nov. 4, when the two teams host a
pair of exhibition games. The women will entertain Bryan College at
5:30 p.m., with the men hosting Carson-Newman at 7:30 p.m.
The first regular season home game for coach Sytia Messer's
women's team is on Monday, Nov. 15, with a 7 p.m. tipoff time
against Alabama A&M. Coach Mike Sutton's men's team
hosts its first regular season home game on Tuesday, Nov. 23, with
a 7 p.m. tipoff against Appalachian State.
The women's team returns home on Saturday, Nov. 27, to host
Tennessee Wesleyan in a game that begins an hour earlier than
usual, with a 6 p.m. start time.
On Wednesday, Dec. 1, the two teams will swap starting times for a
non-conference doubleheader. The men's game will begin at 6
p.m. against SIU Edwardsville, while the women will welcome
long-time arch-rival Middle Tennessee State at 8 p.m.
Through the remainder of December, single games start at 7 p.m.
and doubleheaders follow the same 5:30/7:30 schedule except for one
key Ohio Valley Conference date. On Sunday, Dec. 19, Eastern
Illinois visits and the women's game begins at 2 p.m.
followed by the men's contest at 4 p.m.
A January 2 non-conference doubleheader features the same Sunday
afternoon matinee times. The women host St. Louis University at 2
p.m., and the men welcome Bluefield College at 4 p.m.
The remainder of the games in January and February will follow
Tech's standard starting times with doubleheaders in the
evening at 5:30 and 7:30 p.m., and single games at 7 p.m. The
single games include the Austin Peay men's game on Feb. 7,
the Tennessee State men's game on Feb. 14, and the Tennessee
State women's game on Feb. 17.
The starting times for the doubleheader on Feb. 19 are tentatively
set for 5:30 and 7:30 p.m., with the women hosting Austin Peay and
the men hosting a Bracket Buster game against an opponent to be
named in early February. Those starting times could be changed if
the men's game is selected for an ESPN telecast.
In fact, all dates and starting times remain subject to change
throughout the season due to such things as any game being selected
for telecast. All schedule changes or adjustments will be announced
on Tech's website, TTUsports.com, as well as in a variety of
additional outlets.
