South Dakota State men’s basketball announced Thursday it will play eight nonleague games away from Frost Arena, including four neutral site matchups, in 2018-19.

The Jackrabbits begin the road portion of the upcoming campaign Nov. 16 at Florida Gulf Coast as part of a week-long trip to the Sunshine State. SDSU closes the week with a three-day stay at the Gulf Coast Showcase, Nov. 19-21. SDSU will play three games in Estero, Florida as part of the holiday event, with the field revealed at a later date.

The previously announced U.S. Bank Stadium Basketball Classic is the final neutral site contest for the Jacks, featuring SDSU and the Northern Iowa Panthers on Dec. 1 in Minneapolis.

From there, South Dakota State closes its road nonleague slate with three true road games, traveling to Memphis Dec. 4, Nevada Dec. 15 and Eastern Washington Dec. 18.

The Jackrabbits’ 2018 home nonleague slate will be released Monday.
