The Northwestern men’s basketball team will play all of its 2017-18 home games at Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois, the program announced Tuesday morning.
Back in June, Northwestern announced that Welsh-Ryan Arena would be undergoing a $110 Million renovation to be completed in time for the 2018-19 season.
Several locations were discussed as options for a temporary home, but the program settled on Allstate Arena.
“We are excited to partner with Allstate Arena to host Northwestern men’s basketball games during the 2017-18 season while Welsh-Ryan Arena is undergoing its renovation,” Northwestern Vice President for Athletics and Recreation Jim Phillips said in the official statement.
