A Strategic Warm‑up for Peru
Indiana University’s men’s basketball squad will meet Collège Jean‑de‑Brébeuf in an exhibition contest at Assembly Hall on Wednesday, July 16, 2026, tipping off at 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The game is part of the Hoosiers’ preparation for the upcoming FISU American Games in Peru, and it will be played under FIBA rules.
Tickets will go on sale through the university’s ticketing portal, with prices starting at $15. The match will not be televised or streamed, but fans can attend in person to watch the Hoosiers wear specially designed Team USA jerseys for the occasion.
After the game, Indiana players will take part in an autograph session, while IU football athletes will host a separate signing event beforehand. The college team from Montreal is known for its strong basketball tradition, making the encounter an intriguing cross‑border test for the Hoosiers.
The exhibition also serves as a showcase for the university’s broader athletic identity, highlighting the collaboration between the basketball program and the institution’s international partnerships. With the FISU Games approaching, the game offers a low‑key but valuable opportunity to fine‑tune strategies and build chemistry before the team departs for Peru.
