MINNEAPOLIS — The Augsburg University men’s basketball team will be competing in the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference postseason playoffs this week, hosting the University of St. Thomas in a quarterfinal game on Wednesday (2/21) at 7 p.m. at Si Melby Hall.

It’s a MAROON OUT night, so make sure and wear your Augsburg maroon to the game!

For all MIAC postseason playoff games, tickets are $7 for adults and $3 for students (children ages 5 and under are free). There are no senior discounts. ALL Augsburg students, faculty, staff and alumni must pay admission. The only passes accepted for admission are MIAC-issued passes. Augsburg’s A-Club alumni organization will pay admission for the first 150 Augsburg students to attend the home men’s basketball playoff game on Wednesday (2/21) at Si Melby Hall. Students must show their Augsburg ID for entry to the hockey games.

Augsburg (18-7 overall, 13-7 MIAC) is the No. 4 seed in the MIAC playoffs, and will host No. 5-seed St. Thomas (14-11 overall, 12-8 MIAC) in the quarterfinals. Should the Auggies win Tuesday, they will travel to face either top-seed Saint John’s or No. 2-seed St. Olaf on Friday (2/23) at 7 p.m. The conference championship game will be on Sunday (2/25) at 2 p.m., at the site of the highest remaining seed.
