BROOKLYN HEIGHTS, NY - St. Francis Brooklyn men's basketball head coach Glenn Braica announced the schedule for the 2022-23 season on Tuesday. This season is set to be a special time at Daniel Lynch '38 Gymnasium as St. Francis honors 51 years of memories on Remsen Street.
Braica's thirteenth season at St. Francis features a competitive 12-game non-conference slate, highlighted by a battle with Saint Peter's, fresh off a trip to the Elite Eight, and road trips to Minnesota, Miami, and the University of South Florida (USF) to kick off the year. The Terriers open their Northeast Conference (NEC) schedule on Dec. 31.
"This schedule presents great opportunities to challenge our guys," said Braica. "Our goal is to get better day in and day out and we believe our non-conference match-ups will make our team tougher in preparation for NEC play."
The 2022-23 season kicks off Nov. 7 as the Terriers face Mount Saint Mary College in the nightcap of a men's/women's doubleheader. Tip-off is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. at Lynch '38 Gymnasium.
The Terriers then head on a Twin Cities road trip; taking on Minnesota on Nov. 11 and taking on St. Thomas on Nov. 13.
St. Francis returns to Brooklyn for "Legends of Remsen Weekend" as Saint Peter's comes to Lynch '38 Gymnasium on Nov. 19 off the schools' first trip to the Elite Eight. The Terriers will look for their second consecutive win over the Peacocks at 2:00 p.m.
The "Legends of Remsen Street" will be honored after Saturday's game at a dinner to be held in the Genovesi Center featuring a buffet, cocktails and a night of honoring the best of St. Francis Brooklyn Athletics. Tickets are on sale now for the historic event.
Coach Braica's squad hits the road again for a Sunshine State swing as they face Miami on Nov. 23 before traveling to USF on Nov. 25.
