AU Men's basketballCheer on Men's Basketball in the Patriot League Championship Final

Friday, March 14, could be a day that goes down in AU history. Thousands of sports fans and proud AU alumni will gather to watch the Men's Basketball team take on Colgate University for the Patriot League Title and the league's automatic berth into the NCAA Tournament - from Bender Arena if they're lucky enough to get tickets - or from a local bar or the comfort of their living room if they have ESPN2.

This will be AU's first appearance in the championship game since 2004 and its fourth appearance in seven seasons since AU joined the Patriot League. If AU wins, it will be their first Patriot League title and NCAA Tournament bid in the program's history.

The game will be available in all areas on ESPN2, so if you are unable to make it to the game, please join us in one of the following cities for our Regional Watch Parties to gather with fellow friends and alumni and cheer on the Eagles!
