Jan 22, 2026 | Men's Basketball
NEW ORLEANS – Tulane University men's basketball will aim to get back into the win column on Friday night as it takes on Charlotte in Halton Arena. The Green Wave has not lost four consecutive games since dropping five-straight from November 22 to December 7, 2024.
The game between the Wave and the 49ers is set to tipoff at 6:30 p.m. CT on ESPN+. Fans can also listen to the action live on the Tulane Sports Network from Learfield on 106.7 The Ticket with the Voice of the Green Wave Corey Gloor or streaming on the Tulane Athletics App and The Varsity Network App.
This marks the 28th all-time meeting between Tulane and Charlotte with the Green Wave trailing the series 11-16.

In its last time out, Tulane suffered its third-straight loss falling 74-79 in a fierce battle at Florida Atlantic on Wednesday, January 21.
