Penn State men’s basketball will travel to West Virginia as the two teams will play an exhibition game on Saturday, Nov. 3 at WVU Coliseum. All proceeds from the game will benefit American Red Cross hurricane relief efforts.
Additional information on how to purchase tickets, tipoff time and broadcast designation will be announced closer to the date of the game.
Both teams were originally scheduled to play exhibition games against other opponents on the same day, with the Nittany Lions cancelling their Nov. 3 exhibition game vs. Nyack College in the Bryce Jordan Center.
“Through this exhibition game with West Virginia, our team has an opportunity to help and support those who have felt the devastating effects of Hurricane Florence and its aftermath,” said coach Patrick Chambers in a release.
Meeting at least once each year from 1936-91 as regional foes and conference opponents, Penn State and West Virginia have not played since January 1991 when the Nittany Lions won in Morgantown, 66-63.
