Newcastle Eagles
The BBL Trophy holders and recent BBL Cup winners make the trip to the WISE Campus as they begin their Trophy defence on Tuesday night. The winner of this first round tie will take on Leicester Riders or London Lions in the second round.
HEAD COACH

The Wofford University alum had 23 points and seven rebounds against the Flyers on Friday night.
