Duquesne and Robert Morris’ men’s basketball schedules for this upcoming season.

On Thursday, updates were released about the men’s basketball schedules for Duquesne and Robert Morris for the upcoming season.

The change for Duquesne was minor—just the location of one game. Rocco Miller reported that the Dukes’ game against UC Irvine on December 21 will now take place at home, as Duquesne paid UC Irvine to relocate the game to Pittsburgh.

Schedule Update:

Duquesne and UC Irvine have agreed to move this game to Pittsburgh at Duquesne's UPMC Cooper Fieldhouse in exchange for cash considerations. The date of the game remains Saturday, December 21st.#A10MBB #BigWest https://t.co/pRqjRtYNrm
