'City championship' at stake as Tulane and UNO meet Wednesday

The University of New Orleans men's basketball team's four-game road swing continues on Wednesday with a notably shorter commute as the Privateers will head across town to take on Tulane at 7 p.m. inside Avron B. Fogelman Arena in Devlin Fieldhouse.

"We're excited to go uptown and renew a great rivalry that goes back to the program's inception," UNO coach Mark Slessinger said. "I've gotten texts today from great people like [former UNO head coach] Tim Floyd who know how much this game means, not only to our faculty, staff and students, but to our 35,000 alumni here in the metro area, as well as all the players and coaches who have been here before.
