Syracuse Basketball: Tyus Battle set to return for March Madness

As expected the Syracuse basketball team is dancing in March once again. They’ll be playing the Baylor Bears on Thursday in Salt Lake City, we’re still awaiting times to be revealed.

Something we no longer have to wait for is the news on SU star Tyus Battle. It has been confirmed by multiple sources who have spoken with Syracuse head coach Jim Boeheim: Tyus Battle is a full-go for the March Madness tournament.

It was first reported by Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports late Sunday afternoon:

“Syracuse’s Tyus Battle (hip) practiced “almost full speed today” and will practice full speed by Tuesday, per Jim Boeheim.
