UMass Lowell River Hawks Men's Basketball Tickets

Founded in 1975 in Lowell, Massachusetts, UMass Lowell River Hawks men’s basketball has grown from a Division II powerhouse to a rising America East contender. The program’s trophy case features the 1988 NCAA Division II national championship, Northeast-10 tournament crowns in 2003, 2004 and 2010, and back-to-back appearances in the America East title game in 2023 and 2024. Fans still talk about guard Christian Lutete’s school-record 51 points at LIU, while head coach Pat Duquette continues to steer the River Hawks with purpose and ambition.

Home games at the intimate Kennedy Family Athletic Complex deliver a loud, student-fueled edge, the kind of bandbox atmosphere that helped UMass Lowell finish a perfect 17-0 at home in 2022-23.
