ORLANDO – The UCF men's basketball team is set to begin its 2022-23 campaign, hosting UNC Ashville on Monday night at 8 p.m. inside Addition Financial Arena.

Head Coach Johnny Dawkins enters his seventh season at the helm of the Knights' program after finishing the 2021-22 slate with an 18-12 record, including a remarkable 13-3 record at home. Overall, the Knights have gone 71-21 at home during the Dawkins era, a .772 winning percentage.

UCF's season begins with a three-game homestand, and it gets started against the Bulldogs Monday, a team that was picked to finish third in the Big South's preseason poll. The two sides have only met three times in program history, with the Knights winning all three matchups. The last time UCF met UNC Ashville on the hardwood was back in 1990, a 91-76 Knight victory in Orlando.

UCF is 6-0 in season openers under Dawkins, defeating Robert Morris at home 69-59 last year to open the season.



Good stuff…
