Women's Basketball Finalizes Non-Conference Schedule
August 01, 2011 | Women's Basketball
MUNCIE, Ind. - The Ball State University women's basketball team has finalized its 2011 non-conference schedule, which allows the Cardinals to play at home in Worthen Arena eight times.
"I am pleased with our 2011-12 non-conference schedule," said head women's basketball coach Kelly Packard. "It is the result of a regional and in-state strategy. It is also reflective of strategic efforts to position a young team for early success, as the schedule contains eight home games. We will visit Wisconsin-Green Bay, a program that finished ninth in the nation in the 2011 NCAA women's basketball rankings."
Illinois State will be the Cardinals first opponent this season at home Nov. 11, before traveling to Wright State Nov. 13, and then SIU-Edwardsville Nov 16. Ball State hosts Murray State Nov. 19, and Oakland City Nov. 21. BSU will face one of its three in-state opponents when it travels to Evansville Nov. 29.
Ball State hosts five schools the month of December starting with Detroit Mercy (Dec. 1), Stetson (Dec. 4), Austin Peay (Dec. 11), Valparaiso (Dec. 18) and then Marshall Dec. 31 to end non-conference action. The Cardinals will travel to Butler (Dec. 9) and Horizon League powerhouse Wisconsin-Green Bay (Dec. 20) for their last two road contests before Mid-American Conference play begins.
