BOWLING GREEN, Ky. — WKU Hilltopper Basketball will get a head start on the upcoming 2017-18 season by participating in a seven-day foreign tour to Costa Rica in August.
The Hilltoppers will tentatively play three games against pro, club or international college teams to be announced in Costa Rica while on the overseas trip, which takes place Aug. 7-14.
Per NCAA rules, programs are allowed to take a foreign tour once every four years, although this is the first such trip for WKU since the Hilltoppers traveled to Spain prior to the 2005-06 season.
