Houston Men’s Basketball Faces UAB in NCAA Tournament on Friday

PITTSBURGH – The University of Houston Men’s Basketball program will make its fourth consecutive appearance in the NCAA Tournament when it tips off against No. 12 seed at 8:20 p.m. (CDT) Friday, inside PPG Paints Arena.

No. 15/15 Houston earned its trip to the Big Dance with an impressive 71-53 win over Memphis in the American Athletic Conference Championship Title Game on Sunday inside Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas. This will be the 23rd NCAA Tournament appearance in school history and the fourth under three-time American Athletic Conference Coach of the Year Kelvin Sampson.

After winning The American regular-season title with a 15-3 mark, the Cougars successfully defended their tournament title against the Tigers. It was only the fourth time in school history that Houston swept the regular-season and tournament titles and the first time since the 1991-92 campaign. Fans can hear Friday’s game on 950 AM KPRC.
