YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) — Eastern Michigan University Head Men's Basketball Coach Rob Murphy released the squad's 2017-18 non-conference schedule Monday, Aug. 21. The Eagles will host seven games inside the friendly confines of the Convocation Center, while they will travel for six, including two games as part of the Hoosier Tipoff Classic.
"We are very excited about our challenging but balanced non-conference slate," stated Murphy. "Our (non conference) schedule will help put us in position to compete for a Mid-American Conference championship"
The Eagles open the season at home Friday, Nov. 10, against Spring Arbor as part of a doubleheader with the EMU women's basketball team. The Green and White wrap up opening weekend with a 2 p.m. tip against Michigan-Dearborn Sunday, Nov. 12, before turning its focus to the Hoosier Tipoff Classic.

After its meeting with the Hoosiers, EMU soars to the Sunshine State for a game against South Florida, Nov. 26, to close out the classic.
Remaining in Florida, Eastern Michigan treks to Jacksonville to take on North Florida, Nov. 29, before returning to the Convocation Center. The Eagles host Oakland, Dec. 6, in the first of game a home-and-home with the Golden Grizzlies, and then welcome Central State, Dec. 9.
