What do you think the IU basketball starting lineup will look like in the exhibition opener?
Indiana basketball opens the exhibition season next Wednesday night at Assembly Hall against Grace College. I know a little bit about Grace because last fall I had a job shadow from there attend an IU game with me. His name is Steve Copeland and I believe he's still a student there. So I got briefed a little bit about the Lancers at that time, and then I was surprised when the schedule came out to see that the Hoosiers would play Grace in an exhibition game this season.
Grace College is a private Christian school in Winona Lake, Indiana. They have an enrollment of about 1,200 and they play in the Mid-Central Conference in NAIA. Schools in their conference include Goshen, Taylor, St. Francis, Indiana Wesleyan, Bethel, Marian, Spring Arbor and Huntington. They've had some good teams in the past and won the NAIA national championship in 1992.
But that's the first of two exhibition games for IU. The Hoosiers play Grace on Wednesday Nov. 4 at 7 p.m., and then St. Joseph on Monday, Nov. 9 at 7 p.m. The regular season opener is Friday, Nov. 13 against Howard at 8 p.m. at Assembly Hall.
