“We’re excited to release the 2024 schedule and start building towards the season opener in late August,” said Lamb. “This is a challenging schedule that will have us prepared for when we open Southern Conference play at the end of September. Our fans have the opportunity to travel to the two non-conference road games at Appalachian State and Elon, and having North Dakota State come to Greene Stadium will be great for the Tri-Cities. We look forward to having Greene Stadium packed all season.”
