MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. — The University of Tulsa men's basketball team will open play in the Puerto Rico Tip-Off at Myrtle Beach against Western Michigan at 7 p.m. (CT) on Thursday, Nov. 16, at HTC Center on the campus of Coastal Carolina.
The Golden Hurricane (1-1) is coming off a dominant 90-71 win over Oral Roberts on Monday night in the annual Mayor's Cup game. Junior Etou led all scorers with 30 points, which was just one off his career high, on 11-of-13 shooting. The output is the most by an American Athletic Conference player this season and Etou is one of 24 Division I players to score at least 30 in 2017-18.
