Creighton kicks of the regular season this weekend with two games as a part of the Global Sports Hy-vee Challenge. The Bluejays face Alabama State Friday night and Northern Arizona Sunday afternoon.
The games offer fans an opportunity to gain a sense of what Greg McDermott’s playing time rotation will be B.E. (Before Echenique). Will Doug McDermott play as much as he did in the exhibition game? Will anyone give Antoine Young a break at the point? Who will step up on the wing?
It is a busy weekend on the Hilltop. Between the Creighton women’s soccer team playing in the NCAA Tournament Friday night in Minneapolis, the men’s soccer team trying to win the MVC Tournament in Peoria, the women’s basketball team opening the season in North Carolina, and the volleyball team hosting Drake Saturday, there’s a lot going on. So, we know some of you won’t be able to make it to the Qwest Center for these two season-opening games.
That’s why White & Blue Review will publish our Media Menus for this and every other game the Bluejays play this season. Here are the options for tracking the basketball games Friday and Sunday.
