On Saturday, Feb. 11, the UAB Men’s Basketball team competed against the the Old Dominion University Monarchs in the annual Gene Bartow Classic. The 1981-1982 UAB Men’s Basketball team was recognized at halftime of the game for their Elite Eight run in the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament.
ODU came into this game after being defeated by Middle Tennessee State University, while the Blazers entered the contest looking to extend their conference home-win streak after defeating the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.
The Monarchs made the majority of the shots they took.
