The first official game of the 2021-22 basketball season is upon us. After taking down the WSSU Rams in last week’s exhibition game 88-56, the Deacs return home to the Joel to tip off the season against the William and Mary Tribe. This is obviously a very winnable game for the Deacs, but there were plenty of upsets last night—even just in the ACC (looking at you UVA, Pitt, and GT)—so Wake should definitely not underestimate the Tribe in this one. As the exhibition game was not available anywhere but in the Joel, this will be fan’s first chance to see the new look Deacs this season. Let’s hope they put on a show. Go Deacs!
