The Eagles host Georgia State in the regular-season finale.
STATESBORO – Georgia Southern's men's basketball Senior Day Celebration will take place immediately following the Eagles' 5 p.m. contest against Georgia State Saturday in Hanner Fieldhouse.
Fans are asked to stay in their seat following the contest to help recognize seniors Tookie Brown and Montae Glenn for their contributions to Georgia Southern University and Eagle basketball.
"We think it is best to maintain the normal pregame warm-up routine and celebrate our seniors immediately after the game," said Georgia Southern coach Mark Byington.
Senior Day is just one of a host of activities centered around Saturday's game. It is TrueBlue Saturday and athletics events on campus include the football spring game at 11 a.m. in Paulson Stadium. The Eagle softball team plays Appalachian State at 1 p.m. at Eagle Field, and the baseball team plays host to UNC Asheville at 2 p.m. at J.I. Clements Stadium.
For basketball, it is Geico Alumni Day, presented by The Hudson and The George, and Georgia Southern has invited men's basketball alumni to attend the game and be recognized at halftime. Other promotions are: White Out - wear white and all fans will receive the official new white out rally towel; Free t-shirts will be given to the first 250 students courtesy of the University Store; Cheer Team seniors will be recognized during the game and perform their Nationals routine at halftime; One point will be on the line in the Southern vs. State Rivalry Series, which State leads 7-4.
The winner of the contest gets at least a share of the Sun Belt regular-season championship and no lower than the second seed in the upcoming Sun Belt Tournament, which carries with it a double bye into the semifinals. Georgia State won the season's first meeting 81-72 in Atlanta back on Feb. 2.
The contest is expected to sell out, and only general admission seating is still available. Student seating is limited so early arrival is suggested. Tickets can be purchased at GSEagles.com/Tickets.
