George Mason home opener for 2012-2013 will be UVA on November 9

Emails were sent to season ticket holders today, letting them know if they renew for two years now they will be able to "purchase additional tickets for opening night versus UVA", which is set for Friday, November 9, 2012. This is the best home opener George Mason has had since Wichita State came to Fairfax in 2006. UVA's current RPI is 42, and they have a lot of talented freshmen coming in next season. They won't have Mike Scott or Sammy Zeglinski (who killed us this year) but they will still be a strong team on the Patriots non-conference schedule. You can bet they won't be wearing the black alternate unis for this one.

Keep in mind they will play four games in the Paradise Jam tournament November 16-19, with a field that includes UConn, New Mexico, and Iona.

Also, here is the CAA tournament seating chart if you plan on going to Richmond this year.
