Just one week separates Central student-athletes from the beginning of the altered winter season. Three events take place next Saturday, with wrestling, men’s and women’s basketball in action.

The Dutch wrestlers will head to a conference triangular with Loras at Coe. First matches begin at 11:00 a.m. in Cedar Rapids.

The men’s and women’s basketball teams will begin their seasons against Dubuque in opposite locations. The women will hit the road while the men will play host to the Spartans. Both games tip off at 2:00 p.m., with the men’s game airing on 92.1 KRLS. Jon Mohwinkle and Thomas Spoehr will call the action, with pregame coverage from Kuyper Gymnasium beginning at 1:45 p.m. next Saturday.
