🔼 Country Roads. The Butler men’s hoops squad will look to pack its strong shooting for their trip to West Virginia as the ‘Dawgs get set to battle South Carolina tonight and Virginia on Sunday as part of the 2025 Greenbrier Tip-Off.

In the past two games, Butler is shooting 30-for-65 from long-range, led by Finley Bizjack who has connected on 10 3-pointers in each of the past two outings. On the season, the ‘Dawgs rank in the top-40 nationally in 3-pointer shooting.

Tonight’s showdown with the Gamecocks marks the first meeting between the two programs, while Sunday’s battle with Virginia is the second, with the first coming in the 2016 NCAA Tournament.

🔼 Among The Elite. When the Butler men’s cross country squad toes the line at tomorrow’s NCAA Championship in Missouri, the ‘Dawgs will do so as one of only 11 teams in the country to reach the NCAA Championships in each of the past six seasons.

Tomorrow’s race time for the men is set for 9:10 EST on ESPNU.

🔼 Senior Salute. The Butler football squad is back at the Sellick Bowl for the first time in three weeks when the ‘Dawgs get set to host Senior Day this Saturday.

Butler will host its annual showdown with Valpo and honor its group of seniors prior to the 1 pm kickoff.
