Huskers' Bahamas Schedule Finalized
Nassau, Bahamas -- The Nebraska basketball team altered its schedule for this week's trip because of a scheduling conflict with the local organizers.
The Huskers, who were originally scheduled to open play Sunday night, will now play four games over a four-day stretch beginning Tuesday evening. The Huskers will play at 7:30 p.m. local time (6:30 p.m. central) from Tuesday until Friday at Sir Kendall Isaacs Gymnasium. An updated schedule is listed below. All four games will be against teams from the Bahamas Basketball Federation.
"it is going to be tough to play for games in four days, but it is a good test for us," assistant coach Chris Croft said Saturday. "We have three games in four days in the Puerto Rico Tip-Off and in the Big 12 Tournament, you could potentially play four straight days."
Fans can follow Nebraska trip on Huskers.com with recaps and stats following each game. In addition, the NUHoopsblog will also feature updates throughout the week.
