@NKUNorseMBB adds nonconference tilts versus Chattanooga and Tennessee Tech

HIGHLAND HEIGHTSKy. – Two additional nonconference matchups for the Northern Kentucky men's basketball team have been announced. A Saturday, Nov. 28, contest at Chattanooga is slated for 2 p.m. (ET) before the Norse play host to Tennessee Tech on Thursday, Dec. 3, in a 6 p.m. showdown at BB&T Arena.

Five nonconference games are now currently on tap for NKU. The Norse previously announced the home- and season-opening contest with Ball State on Nov. 25 as well as road tilts with Butler (Dec. 6) and Kent State (Dec. 13).

Northern Kentucky is coming off of its fourth-consecutive 20-win season, tying for the longest streak of 20-win campaigns in program history. Junior veterans Trevon Faulkner, Bryson Langdon, Adrian Nelson and Paul Djoko, along with senior Adham Eleeda, are joined by a bevy of freshmen and newcomers this year as the Norse look continue their recent trend of dominance in the Horizon League.

Fans can stay connected to the Norse through several fan engagement opportunities, including purchasing fan cutouts to place in BB&T Arena and a pregame Facebook Live show.
