The altered winter sports schedule in the American Rivers Conference includes basketball games being played in opposite locations, rather than one school hosting a doubleheader against the same team. An eight-game single round robin will be played, with all nine schools making the conference tournament.

The Central men will host Dubuque, Buena Vista, Coe and Wartburg, while the women will travel to those schools on the same day. The Dutch women will host Loras, Simpson, Coe and Nebraska Wesleyan.

92.1 KRLS will broadcast the Saturday home games, along with the women’s game against Simpson on Wednesday, February 3rd. The season begins on January 23rd with the games against Dubuque.
