🔼 Bright Horizons. With two championships already on the books for 2023-24, the Monarchs’ future is plenty bright.

Well, that future got even brighter this week with three different programs inking newcomers for 2024.

🔼 Hitting the Road. Wednesday nights in Williamsburg.

No, that’s not an upcoming reality show, that’s what the ODU men’s basketball team will be up to as they hit the road for a in-state showdown with former conference rival, William & Mary.

The Monarchs will be looking to win their third in the past four games and are in a stretch of playing four former CAA foes in the midst five games.

🎳 QUEEN CITY, HERE WE COME!

The Monarchs are heading to the Queen City as ODU will go bowling for the second time in three seasons.

This time, it’ll in the Famous Toastery Bowl be against a familiar foe as they battle the Hilltoppers of Western Kentucky, a program that the Monarchs have played seven times previously as a former Conference USA opponent.

The two teams will take the field at Jerry Richardson Stadium on the campus of UNC Charlotte on Monday, Dec. 18 at 2:30 p.m.
