LIVINGSTON, Ala. —After a stretch of four games in seven days, the University of West Alabama men’s basketball team jumps back into action this weekend, participating in the Flagler Construction Equipment Classic, hosted by Valdosta State University on Friday, Nov. 30 and Saturday, Dec. 1.

UWA will face Eckerd College in the opening game of the two-day event at 3 p.m. CST.  The Tritons enter the contest riding a three-game win streak after topping VSU last Saturday.  The Red and White will usher in the month of December with a 3 p.m. tilt with Lynn University.  The Blue and White Fighting Knights have reeled off back-to-back wins coming into the tournament.

The Tigers will look to halt a four-game losing streak after dropping all four matches a week ago.  The squad is coming off back-to-back losses on the road at Arkansas at Monticello and Southern Arkansas. 

After this weekend’s activity, the Red and White will close out the pre-Christmas home schedule with match ups with Southern Arkansas on Dec. 5 and a Southeastern Bible College on Dec. 7.  Both games are set for 6 p.m. at Pruitt Hall on the UWA campus.
