The announcement comes a day after Syracuse basketball revealed that it had scheduled a home contest against Rider for Saturday, Dec. 5 at 6 p.m. The Orange and the Broncs will meet for just the second time ever and for the first time since 1950. Niagara and Rider are both members of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference, or MAAC.
Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Syracuse, like every other college-basketball program, is piecing together its non-conference schedule on the fly with games scheduled much closer to the date they’re being played than usual.
So far, it has scheduled contests against Bryant (the opener this Friday), Niagara, Rider, and Buffalo (Dec. 19), in addition to the ACC/Big 10 Challenge game at Rutgers (Dec. 8) and the rivalry game against Georgetown (Jan. 9).
