LAST TIME OUT – ETSU currently sits at 0-2 this season following losses at Arizona State (75-65) and NC State (77-63).
HOME COURT ADVANTAGE AT FREEDOM HALL – Wednesday will mark ETSU’s official home debut for the 2026-27 season. Since Head Coach Brooks Savage took the reins ahead of the 2023-24 season, the Bucs are 36-11 at Freedom Hall. Furthermore, over the last two seasons, ETSU is 26-7 (.788 winning percentage) at home. Those 26 victories are the most in the SoCon during that time frame.
SENIOR LEADING THE WAY – Senior guard BJ Ward has paced the Buccaneers through the opening two games, leading the team in five statistical categories. Ward leads ETSU in points scored (36), field goals made (15), minutes played (69), assists (10) and steals (five).
FINDING THE SHOOTING TOUCH FROM THE FIELD – Despite opening the season with consecutive road games against power conference opponents, ETSU has shot 47.6 percent from the field, ranking third among SoCon teams through the opening week. The Bucs trail only Samford (53.4) and Furman (49.7) in field-goal percentage.
ABOUT CAMPBELL – Like ETSU, Campbell also holds a 0-2 record so far in 2026-27. The Camels also lost to NC State, 83-64, and dropped a game at Western Michigan, 87-71. A player to watch for the Camels is Rashawn Inglemon, who has scored 20 or more points in both of Campbell’s games this season.
SERIES REWIND VS. CAMELS – Wednesday will be the 18th all-time meeting between the Bucs and Camels. ETSU has held the decisive edge, winning 15 of the 17 matchups, including the last meeting in the 2011 Atlantic Sun Tournament, 54-53.
