Dec. 29 Road Game at K-State Added, Keiser Comes to UNF Dec. 31; FNU Game Canceled
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - North Florida men's basketball announces a series of schedule changes for its upcoming slate over the remainder of the 2021 calendar year.
UNF will travel to Kansas State Wednesday, Dec. 29, while Keiser University comes to the UNF Arena for a New Year's Eve matinee Friday, Dec. 31. UNF's home game against Florida National originally scheduled for Thursday, Dec. 30 is canceled due to COVID-19 protocols within the Florida National program.
"Due to the fluid landscape of COVID-19 protocols throughout the nation, we have had to make schedule changes that best suit our program financially and logistically," head coach Matthew Driscoll said. "Removing or adding an opponent to your schedule takes a lot of forward planning and outside of the box thinking from a number of people. Considering that, we are thankful for our players, staff and administration for all of their efforts and communication to get these games in, especially during the holiday season."
Updates
-Road game at Kansas State added (Wednesday, Dec. 29 at 8 p.m. EST)
-December home game vs. Florida National canceled due to FNU COVID-19 protocols
-Home game vs. Keiser added (Friday, Dec. 31 at 2 p.m.)
Tickets purchased for the Dec. 30th game against Florida National will be valid for the newly added contest against Keiser Dec. 31 at 2 p.m.
This will be UNF's fourth-ever meeting against Kansas State, second contest against a Big 12 team this year and seventh game versus a Power Five program during the 2021-22 season. The Ospreys will face Keiser for the first time.
The game at Kansas State will air on Big 12 Now on ESPN+ with a 8 p.m EST tip-off. UNF's home game vs. Keiser will be available on ESPN+.
