Strength of Schedule
The Panthers will have their hands full with their opening three games, as Frostburg State, Kentucky State, and Lindenwood had a combined record of 24-10 in 2019, with Lindenwood reaching the second round of the NCAA Playoffs. Joining Lindenwood in the 2019 NCAA Playoffs was conference foe Tiffin, who finished their last full season at 9-2. New to the G-MAC this year is Ashland University, who in 2019 finished their season at a solid 7-4 in a tough GLIAC Conference. Ashland’s last NCAA appearance was in 2017 when they reached the second round of the playoffs.
All home games can be streamed for free at Kentucky Wesleyan – Home (stretchinternet.com). Both season and single game ticket information will be announced later this week.
