No dates have been released, but American's summer prospectus includes a list of the Eagles' 2007-2008 opponents, the majority of which will keep AU close to home.
The list in the prospectus does not indicate which games will be at home, or which are away. Some are pretty obvious. The two biggest names on the schedule are Maryland and Georgetown, both of which are pretty certain to be away from Bender Arena, though visits to the Verizon Center, a few blocks downtown from AU, and College Park, Md., which is right outside of D.C., hardly classify as road trips.
Morgan State visited AU last season, so this year's game probably means a quick bus ride to Baltimore. Ditto for a matchup with Loyola (Md.). Saint Francis (Pa.) was a home game for the Eagles last season, so that probably means a visit to the isolation chamber that is Loretto, Pa. (Not the end of the world, but you can see it from there).
A game against Dayton will be on the road, too, according to Dayton's Web site, which lists it as a home game.
Fairfield, Mt. St. Mary's, New Jersey Tech and Howard were road games last year, so they are likely to be Bender home dates this season.
Other non conference games include Ivies Brown and Columbia, Jacksonville, Stony Brook and UMBC.
There is no mention of the ESPN BracketBusters.
Amerrican returns just one starter -- point guard Derrick Mercer-- and will have six new faces on the roster -- four juco transfers and a pair of freshmen.
