Men’s Basketball season tickets on sale

FAYETTEVILLE, AR. – Season tickets for the 2012-13 University of Arkansas men’s basketball season are on sale at the Razorback Ticket Center and on-line at ArkansasRazorbacks.com, according to a release.

Season ticket packages for Head Coach Mike Anderson’s second year are $450 and include admission to 20 games at the “Basketball Palace of Mid-America,” Bud Walton Arena. The Razorbacks’ home slate includes non-conference matchups with Syracuse and Oklahoma with Southeastern Conference foes Kentucky, Florida, Missouri, Tennessee and Texas A&M among others.

The Razorbacks’ season opener is scheduled for Friday, Nov. 9, when Arkansas takes on Sam Houston State.

Anderson’s “Fastest 40 Minutes in Basketball” was in full swing when the Razorbacks traveled to Italy for their preseason tour and with a full roster Arkansas should continue to put pressure on opponents. The Razorbacks return All-SEC guard BJ Young, former All-SEC forward Marshawn Powell and five others and add nine newcomers who could make an immediate impact.
