Clemson, NC State and Syracuse also visit McCamish Pavilion, where Tech won a program-record 17 games last season. Tennessee highlights a non-conference schedule which will be announced this summer.
The Yellow Jackets return their top three scorers – sophomore guard Josh Okogie, senior center Ben Lammers and senior guard Tadric Jackson – from a team which surpassed all pre-season projections by winning 21 games and advancing all the way to the championship game of the NIT. Along the way, the Jackets knocked off No. 9 North Carolina, the eventual national champion, No. 6 Florida State and No. 14 Notre Dame, as well as Boston College, Clemson, Pittsburgh and Syracuse in conference play.
Lammers, who ranked No. 2 in the nation in blocked shots and No. 4 in the ACC in rebounding, earned second-team All-ACC honors and was named the ACC Defensive Player of the Year. Okogie, who accumulated the third-most points of any Tech freshman in program history, was named to the ACC All-Freshman team.
“Our success last season was an unbelievable reflection of and a compliment to our fans throughout the season,” said Pastner. “For us to be able to do that, to get 17 home wins in year one of a major rebuild job is a direct reflection of our crowd. They willed us to victories all year long. I am so proud to have been associated with them, and we need their continued support to keep us moving forward.”
