Colgate Raiders Men's Basketball Tickets

Born in 1901 in Hamilton, New York, the Colgate Raiders men’s basketball program blends academic rigor with relentless hoops tradition. From Adonal Foyle’s shot-swatting star turn in the mid-1990s to the modern surge under head coach Matt Langel, the Raiders have stacked Patriot League regular season and tournament crowns and punched multiple NCAA Tournament tickets.

Home games at Cotterell Court feel intimate and electric, with fans nearly on the floor, a roaring pep band and a student section that turns close games into noise fueled sprints. Annual showdowns with Bucknell and other Patriot League foes keep winter nights heated in Hamilton. Buy tickets from Vivid Seats to experience it live!
