Syracuse basketball schedules Cornell for Dec. 21 game at the Dome

SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Syracuse basketball announced it will next play its local rival Cornell on Dec. 21 at the Carrier Dome.

Cornell is Syracuse’s second-most common opponent, having faced the Orange 125 times. Syracuse leads the all-time series, 94-31 and owns a 39-game winning streak against the Big Red.

The teams didn’t play last season because Cornell and the Ivy League didn’t play basketball and winter sports in the 2020-21 season amid the pandemic.
