Combined with the 10 days off and the chaos surrounding the football schedule right now, you may have completely forgotten that it’s still basketball season. Tonight the Deacs have their first game since graduation, which is always a bit of an adventure. It’s also Wake’s last home game of 2024, so the Deacs have a chance to close out the year with a blowout win over a Q3 opponent before heading to Clemson for a tough matchup with the Tigers this weekend.

Go Deacs!
