Indiana Hoosiers Gear Up for FISU America Games Debut in Peru

A young roster led by coach Darian DeVries prepares for opening match against the host nation

Indiana basketball is set to make its mark at the FISU America Games in Peru, opening its campaign on Tuesday at 6 p.m. ET against the host nation.

A New Era for the Hoosiers

The squad will wear the colors of the United States, but the roster looks markedly different from past editions, featuring just one scholarship player who returns from the previous season.

Coach Darian DeVries, who took the helm recently, has emphasized development and cohesion, hoping the experience will accelerate the team's growth.

Thursday brings a matchup with the Virgin Islands at the same evening kickoff, a game that could determine the group standings and a spot in the Saturday semifinals for the top two teams.

Streaming and Coverage

All contests will be streamed live on the FISU America Games YouTube channel, giving fans worldwide a front‑row seat to the action, while detailed statistics will be posted on the event’s official website.

The tournament also includes participation from a broader set of South American nations such as Chile, Colombia, Argentina and Brazil, underscoring the regional breadth of the competition.
