The University of Southern Indiana will host its fifth annual Hoops for Troops Military Appreciation game Saturday to honor members of the United States Armed Forces when the Screaming Eagles host Lewis University for a Great Lakes Valley Conference men’s and women’s basketball doubleheader. Game time for the women’s game is 1 p.m., while the men’s contest is slated for 3:15 p.m.
Veterans, military personnel and their guests will receive free tickets to the games with their military identification or proof of service at the front of the PAC. In addition to the free tickets, military members will also be given a yellow pin along with a coupon for a free hot dog, chips and drink.
The event is sponsored by the American Legion Post 324, the USI Veteran Military and Family Resource Center, and the Student Veterans Association.
