Athletics Weekly: November 9-15

CHICAGO, Ill.- Illinois Institute of Technology Athletics has now transitioned into the winter sports seasons, as Swimming and Diving and both men’s and women’s basketball will compete this week.

Women’s Basketball opens the regular season schedule at home on Saturday afternoon (2:00 p.m.) against one of the toughest teams in the region. Calvin College visits Keating Sports Center to open the 2015-16 season.

Calvin presents the Scarlet Hawks with a tough test, as the Knights are ranked 10th in d3hoops.com’s preseason NCAA Division III women’s basketball poll. The Knights will play at nearby North Central College the night before.

Live broadcast and statistics for Saturday’s game will be available at http://www.illinoistechathletics.com/sports/wbkb/2015-16/boxscores/20151114_kg9r.xml.

After two home meets, Men’s and Women’s Swimming and Diving hits the road on Saturday, heading north for a meet at Carthage College in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Tech will oppose both Carthage and Illinois Wesleyan University in a double dual.

Tech hosted Loras College and Lake Forest College on Saturday in a strong performance for both teams. The Scarlet Hawks defeated both teams on the women’s side and split on the men’s side, topping Loras and falling to a strong Lake Forest squad.

Men’s Basketball waits until next week to open the regular season, but the team will play an exhibition at NCAA Division I Chicago State on Friday night at 7:00 p.m. Fans can listen live on 1690AM.
