Syracuse Men's Basketball Adds Brown to Schedule /

Syracuse basketball has added Ivy League foe Brown to the schedule. The two teams will play on Monday, December 27th at 6:00 p.m. Eastern in the Carrier Dome. The game will be broadcast on ACC Network Xtra. Brown is currently 8-5 on the season.

This comes as Syracuse's game against Lehigh and Cornell were postponed due to a Covid outbreak within the Orange program.

“On behalf of our student-athletes and staff, we appreciate and thank our fans for their patience and understanding, as we work through this fluid scheduling situation,” said John Wildhack, Syracuse Director of Athletics said in a statement.

Syracuse is currently 5-5 and was expected to resume its schedule with Atlantic Coast Conference play against Georgia Tech on Wednesday, December 29th. Monday's game will allow the Orange to get another game in to make up for those postponed and as a tune-up for the Yellow Jackets. These will likely be the last games in 2021 for Syracuse, with the Orange squaring off against conference rival Virginia on New Year's Day, January 1, 2022 to kick off the new year. Syracuse is coming off back to back losses against Villanova and Georgetown following two straight wins against Indiana and Florida State.

Here is ticket information from a Syracuse Athletics press release.

-Tickets and parking passes for the postponed game with Lehigh (Dec. 18) will be honored for the Dec. 27 game with Brown.

-Tickets will also be available for purchase online at Cuse.Com/Tickets or by phone at 888-DOMETIX (888- 366-3849).

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting. EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans. After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years. Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports. Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more.
