Head coach Tim Jankovich and the Redbird men will hold an exhibition game against Quincy on November 6. Their first regular-season home game is set for November 17 against SIU Edwardsville. ISU will have three more home contests during the month.
The women’s team will open play on Doug Collins Court at Redbird Arena on November 1 during an exhibition game against Missouri–St. Louis. Head coach Stephanie Glance and the Redbirds will host Northern Illinois on November 26, before a November 28 home game against UIC.
