App State women’s basketball will tip off the 2017-2018 season on Oct. 31 with a home exhibition against Tusculum College at 3 p.m. before hosting Georgia Tech on Nov. 10 to open the regular season.
“Opening up with a BCS opponent on our home court is a great opportunity for us,” head coach Angel Elderkin said. “Then, in less than 48 hours we go down to Radford, another postseason opponent, so right out of the gate we’re going to test our young team with two teams that have postseason experience.”
The Yellow Jackets finished 22-15 last season out of the ACC and were the Women’s National Invitation Tournament runner up, falling to Michigan after three overtime periods in the title game.
