A Pre‑Season Test for the Hoosiers
Indiana University’s men’s basketball team will open its summer schedule with an exhibition match against Collège Jean‑de‑Brébeuf of Montreal on July 15, inside the historic Assembly Hall in Bloomington. The game is set for 7 p.m. Eastern Time and will be played under standard NCAA rules, giving the Hoosiers a familiar competitive environment as they fine‑tune their roster.
The contest forms part of the team’s broader preparation for the forthcoming FISU America Games in Lima, Peru, where the United States will field a collegiate squad to compete against other nations in the continental tournament. In addition to the Canadian opponent, Indiana has lined up exhibitions against North Carolina and Western Kentucky, giving the squad a varied slate of styles and opponents before the international commitment.
Tickets for the Bloomington showdown are on sale through the Indiana Athletics website, allowing fans to witness the early‑season test of a team that will soon travel to South America. Head coach Darian DeVries, who has been guiding the program through this transitional period, is expected to use the games to evaluate player chemistry and assess readiness for the rigors of the FISU competition.
