Syracuse, N.Y. — Syracuse practiced it the Carrier Dome today in preparation for the Orange men's home basketball game against Cornell on Saturday.
Usually, the team works out in its cozy practice facility, but with finals winding down and team workouts scheduled for noon these past two days, the men's and women's basketball programs have been trading locations.
The men moved from the Melo Center to the Dome today strictly for scheduling purposes, said SU interim head coach Mike Hopkins. But it can't hurt to have Orange players shooting at game-day baskets. Usually, SU practices in the dome only on the day before it plays a game.
