🔼 Light Up The Night. Patriot men’s soccer hosts George Washington tomorrow at 7 p.m., with post-match fireworks giving fans another reason to stick around. It’s also Family Weekend & Heroes Night, so help fill George Mason Stadium with Green & Gold and give the Patriots a loud home crowd!
🔼 First Look. Basketball season takes another step closer tomorrow when the men’s basketball team visits Villanova for a 1 p.m. exhibition. The matchup also reunites Tony Skinn with Kevin Willard as the two worked together during Maryland’s 2022-23 NCAA Tournament season as well as three seasons at TCU.
