ORLANDO, Fla. (UCFAthletics.com) - The UCF men's basketball team will continue its quest for a postseason title Monday when the Knights host Rhode Island at 7 p.m. at the UCF Arena in the CBI presented by Zebra Pen Quarterfinals. Tickets for the contest, which start at just $5, are currently available at Ticketmaster.com and UCFAthletics.com.
On Wednesday, the Knights won their 20th game of the year when they posted a 69-54 victory over St. Bonaventure at the UCF Arena. The Knights, who were led by 18 points from sophomore guard Marcus Jordan, used a big run in the second half to pull away from the Bonnies, and advance to face a 20-win Rhode Island squad.
Fans should make sure to arrive early to the UCF Arena Monday as UCF supporters who enter the building before 6:30 p.m. can enter to win seats on the extended UCF team bench courtside. Tickets for this special seating are valued at $75 each. Fans can enter to win at the UCF ticket sales table in the arena front lobby.
This weekend, 1,000 free student tickets for the Rhode Island game will be distributed at the baseball series against Columbia.
