No, not at all! I know I knew that, but with the confusion of the last two years with scheduling and not getting to play the full number of games, I think my excitement about the schedule made me jump the gun... also it seems like many other teams are announcing their home non-cons (even with a caveat that one or two more are TBD).
Really super excited to see the schedule shaping up so nicely. I know you like the non-D1 games (gives some of the deep bench players a chance to get a beefier stat line), but I'd prefer one exhibition and then all D1 games during the regular season. Less chance for injury, more chance for wins that count.
Any further word on the date of the Stanford game? I think I heard someone mention it will actually be in Santa Cruz as part of a double or tripleheader type thing.
Santa Cruz makes a little more sense. Stanford-Loyola definitely doesn't justify a Chase Center event around here...maybe if the other games involved top West Coast teams, but I still don't see it. I would love for them to hurry up and announce the date so I can make plans haha
The Stanford game will be in Santa Cruz around the Christmas holiday. Original thought was the Chase Center.
The Harvard game came together much quicker and should be a home and home.
The day after Thanksgiving will be tough. The game is scheduled for their home gym which seats around 1600.
