Christmas Morning

Christmas Morning

BEVERLY HILLS (MI) – The first day of the men’s college basketball season is akin to Christmas morning in the minds of many. Fans will wake up Monday morning and anxiously scramble to unwrap what they hope will be everything that they have been dreaming about all summer. In the case of the UD Flyers, the first in a series of 31 regular season “gifts” will be the Lions of Lindenwood University.

Quick question: Where is Lindenwood located?

Quick Answer: St. Charles, Missouri

With an undergraduate enrollment of 4,780, the Lions are in the process of transitioning to D-1 hoops and the Ohio Valley Conference. Here is how that works:

Speaking of “transition” the opening night tilt will allow the Red and Blue to move onward from the Capital exhibition game to their first real test of the season, a home game vs. SMU on Friday night.

Bring it on!
