Kennesaw State releases 2017-2018 basketball schedule

Kennesaw State released the 2017-2018 men’s basketball schedule on Tuesday.

The 2017-2018 schedule under coach Al Skinner features 14 home games as well as trips to Butler, Florida State and Washington.

"Our schedule continues to be challenging, particularly our non-league schedule," Skinner said in a statement by the University. "I think that we're getting to the point where we can have a little more success in our non-league schedule and show some improvements as we work towards conference play. League action will be like it has been in the past, but overall I'm looking to continue to improve on our successes with our record."

The Owls will begin the season at home on Nov. 5 against West Georgia and will go on the road to play Butler on Nov. 10.

The Kennesaw State Athletics ticket office is accepting season ticket deposits for the Owls’ 2017-18 season.

Kennesaw State's full 2017-2018 basketball schedule can be seen on the Owls' website.
