Syracuse basketball will host MAAC member Rider on Saturday, Dec. 5.
Syracuse basketball will welcome Rider to the Carrier Dome in early December, the Orange athletics department announced, and that could conceivably wrap up the ‘Cuse non-conference schedule in 2020-21.
Amid the novel coronavirus pandemic, NCAA rules for the 2020-21 college basketball season say that teams can play a maximum of 27 regular-stanza contests, but if they don’t participate in a multiple-team event, they may only compete in 25 games within the regular term.
