After an uninspiring home victory over Mercyhurst earlier this week, Syracuse basketball returns to the Hill on Saturday to face Northeastern.
The Orange (7-4 overall) has two non-conference games left before it commences Atlantic Coast Conference competition on New Year's Eve against Clemson at the JMA Wireless Dome. Northeastern (4-5 overall), meanwhile, beat Central Connecticut in its last outing, following two straight setbacks before that win.
Northeastern is a member of the Coastal Athletic Association ("CAA"). The 'Cuse has already faced three other CAA schools during the 2025-26 season. Syracuse basketball defeated Drexel and Monmouth but lost to Hofstra at the Dome on December 13.
