Yeah, I know it's early, but these slow days in August are still a good chance to look ahead, a bit, to basketball, while we await the Wolfpack.


The conference will once again conduct an 18-game league schedule with all 10 CAA teams facing each other at home and on the road. The regular-season slate opens on Saturday, December 31 and concludes on Saturday, February 25. Teams will open with a stretch of four league contests over eight days before transitioning to a Thursday/Saturday format throughout the rest of the season.


The 2017 CAA Men’s Basketball Championship will be held March 3-6 at the North Charleston Coliseum in North Charleston, S.C. after being played at Baltimore’s Royal Farms Arena for the past three years.


In 2015-16, the CAA was ranked ninth among the nation’s 32 Division I conferences in the final NCAA RPI, matching the highest ranking in league history. Five CAA teams reached the 20-win mark and the league had eight teams with at least 16 victories for the first time.


Eight players from last year’s All-CAA squad return this season, including first-team honorees Chris Flemmings of UNCW, Rokas Gustys of Hofstra and Omar Prewitt of William & Mary, and second-team member William Adala Moto of Towson. The league welcomes back 62% (31-of-50) of its starters from a year ago.


The CAA will announce its television package in conjunction with the conference’s basketball media day on October 25.

All dates for CAA conference games are SUBJECT TO CHANGE.

Billymac, is this from the CAA website?

I hope the W&M game @ Elon stays on a Saturday. I have missed the first two trips to play the Phoenix.

In easy to read graphics:

Is there no Gold Rush game this year, or has it just not been set yet?

Charter Day is the 10th, so the CoC game would be my guess for Gold Rush

Gold Rush game will be 2/11 vs. CofC. Could be a big match up.

Good news in this schedule is that we'll have only two CAA home games while students are away for holiday winter break. Everyone is back on 1/18.

The past few years we've had three or four home games during the break period.
