The time has finally come for the Syracuse basketball team to play some meaningful games once again.
For the past two weeks, the Orange have been participating in exhibition matchups. But on Tuesday, Syracuse will take the court inside the Carrier Dome for their first official non-conference game of the 2018-19 season against the Eastern Washington Eagles.
Expectations are high for the Orange this season and they should be. Their top three scorers from a Sweet 16 run 2017-18 are returning to the team this season along with a handful of other experienced members of their roster.
