Hatters Host Lipscomb, Say Goodbye to Pegg on Saturday

Stetson men's basketball closes out their 2016-17 home schedule when the Hatters host Atlantic Sun Conference co-leader Lipscomb, 4 p.m., Saturday at Edmunds Center. The game can be seen on ESPN3 and the WatchESPN app, and can be heard in Volusia County on WSBB AM 1230 and 1490 or worldwide on myam1230.com.

Saturday's game will also serve as Senior Day as the Hatters honor their lone senior, Brian Pegg, in pregame ceremonies. Team manager Marshall Buschbaum will also be recognized.

The Hatters (10-17 overall, 2-8 ASUN) will be looking to bounce back after a 92-85 loss to Kennesaw State on Thursday. Junior Divine Myles scored a career-high 30 points against the Owls, as Stetson nearly rallied from a 19-point second half deficit.
