TERRE HAUTE, Ind. - The Indiana State women's basketball team has added an exhibition game to support hurricane relief, as the Sycamores will travel to Eastern Illinois Friday, Nov. 3 at 5 p.m. ET. Doors to Lantz Arena will be open at 4:30 p.m. on Friday afternoon for the two games.
The Eastern Illinois men's basketball team will host the University of Illinois following the women's contest. All proceeds from Friday's doubleheader will go to the American Red Cross.

Season ticket holders for Eastern Illinois basketball will have the first right of refusal on their current seat location. All upper level seating will be a general admission ticket and all patrons must have a ticket to enter the seating area.
In light of the tragedies across the United States and Puerto Rico, the NCAA has granted teams the ability to apply for a waiver for an additional exhibition game to be played for charities helping with hurricane relief efforts.
The Sycamores will play one more exhibition contest Sunday, Nov. 5 against Illinois-Springfield at 2 p.m. ET at Hulman Center before welcoming Saint Louis on Friday, Nov. 10 for a 7 p.m. tip inside Hulman Center to open the regular season.
