Former Canisius men’s basketball coach John Beilein, now the head mentor at the University of Michigan, will be on campus Sunday, January 24 when the Griffs host Siena in the Koessler Athletic Center.

Faculty and staff have the opportunity to meet John at a pre-game brunch scheduled for 11:00 a.m. in Science Hall. To register for the brunch, call Terry Nusstein at 888-8206. The cost to attend is only $25.00.

If you cannot attend the brunch, John will be in the Griffins Den, located in the Patrick Lee Center, prior to the game from 1:00 – 1:45 p.m. The cost is $10.00 if you plan to eat. Cash will be collected at the door.

During halftime of the game, John and members of the 1994-1996 men’s basketball teams will be honored on the 20th anniversary of one of the greatest three year runs in school history. Those two teams captured two MAAC titles and advanced to a pair of National Invitational Tournaments and one NCAA Tournament.

Game tickets can be purchased with the brunch or by calling 888-TIXX. For additional information, call John Maddock at Ext. 2977.
