The Profs officially open the year on Sunday, November 9 at Wilkes and then have two more games on the road before hosting Johns Hopkins in the home opener on November 18th.

The last time Rowan played a Division I team was on November 28, 2015 when the Profs hosted La Salle in Esby Gym.  The game served as a reunion of Rowan's 1996 NCAA Championship team coached by John Giannini, who at that time was the head coach of La Salle.
