ORLANDO, Fla. (UCFAthletics.com) - Thanks to the return of three talented seniors and a top-notch schedule in its inaugural year in the American Athletic Conference, the 2013-14 UCF men's basketball campaign will be the most anticipated in program history. To make sure that you do not miss any of the exciting action at the UCF Arena, order new season tickets today online or call 407-UCF-1000.
Season tickets start at just $96 and a new youth season ticket is now available for only $49. Secure your seats by May 17 to receive a complimentary UCF Arena replica.
The renewal period for current season ticket holders begins on June 10.
In its new conference, UCF will compete against some of the best teams in the country, highlighted by defending national champion Louisville. The Knights' league slate in The American will also include perennial powers UConn, Memphis, Cincinnati and Temple. Despite what will be the toughest schedule in program history, no season ticket prices were increased from a year ago.
Head coach Donnie Jones' team will also host Florida State during non-league play.
The Knights will be led by seniors Isaiah Sykes, Tristan Spurlock and Calvin Newell. Sykes, who returned for his final campaign at UCF after declaring for the NBA Draft, led the country with two triple-doubles in 2012-13 and averaged 16.0 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 2.3 steals. Spurlock (11.4 points) and Newell (11.1 points) also averaged double-digits in scoring last year and will help ensure that the Knights have a well-rounded squad this upcoming season.
