🔺 PROTECT THIS HOUSE. The NFL great Ray Lewis famously coined the phrase “PROTECT THIS HOUSE” with the Baltimore Ravens.

Just down the road, our Mason men’s basketball team is looking to do just that as the Patriots look to extend the unbeaten streak for both hoops team to 9-0 when they host NJIT TONIGHT at EagleBank Arena.

Sophomore Keyshawn Hall currently ranks 13th in the country in rebounding, averaging 10.8 board per game. He is one of just 24 players in the nation averaging a double-double (17.7 ppg/10.8 rpg).

🔺 Plotting The Course. For the second time in the past 10 years, the Mason baseball team will enter a season as the hunted instead of the hunter.

The defending Atlantic 10 Champions have unveiled their journey to a quest for back-to-back titles with the release of the full 2024 schedule.

A 56-game slate that includes 32 games at Spuhler Field and several matchups against NCAA Regional teams from last year.
