Bearcats Head West For Two Road Games

The Binghamton Bearcats men's basketball team returns to action following over a week off for final exams.  The Bearcats head to Youngstown State University for a 7:45 game on Wednesday and then move on to Pittsburgh to take on the Panthers on Friday night at 7:00 PM.  BU returns for one final non-conference game when it hosts Hartwick at 2:00 PM on Sunday, December 29.     

The Bearcats head into the game at Youngstown State with a record of 5-5.  In Binghamton's last outing the Bearcats came from a two-point halftime deficit to defeat the Boston University Terriers in overtime.  The Penguins were 5-5 heading into Sunday night's game versus Southeast Missouri State.

Binghamton and Youngstown State have met just once before.  They played at the Events Center last season and the Penguins prevailed 58-48.  Youngstown State is a member of the Horizons League and the Bearcats are 0-2 versus that conference.  BU lost at Oakland University in 2015.

Following the stop in Ohio the Bearcats head to the University of Pittsburgh to meet the Panthers on Friday night.  Binghamton is 0-1 versus Pitt with the only previous meeting a 71-46 loss in 2009.

Both games will be broadcast live on News Radio 1290 WNBF.
