BEVERLY, Mass. – The Endicott men's basketball team embarks on its 2017-18 season this Saturday against Regis College in the Babson Tip-Off Tournament at 3 PM. Here's a preview of the upcoming season for the Gulls. 

RETURNING CAST (ROSTER): After graduating arguably their best senior class in program history, the Gulls will look to Joel Villa (Bronx, N.Y.), Vinny Clifford (Danvers, Mass.), and Keith Brown (Pelham, N.H.) to lead the way in 2017-18. 

MARK YOUR CALENDAR (SCHEDULE): Endicott's schedule this season will feature plenty of intriguing matchups out of the gate including an NCAA Tournament rematch versus Middlebury on Sunday, Nov. 26 and a rematch of last season's CCC Championship against Nichols on Wednesday, Nov. 29 in Dudley, Mass. at 7:30 PM. 

PRESEASON PLAUDITS (CCC POLL): The Gulls were picked to finish fourth overall in the Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) Preseason Coaches' Poll. 

2016-17 YEAR IN REVIEW: Endicott went 24-7 overall last season, and advanced to the third round of the NCAA Tournament for the first time in program history as an at-large selection. The Gulls also were the first team to reach that round in the CCC since Anna Maria did so during the 1995-96 season.
