Greyhounds primed for national TV spotlight

The UIndy football Greyhounds are ready for their close-up Thursday, when a home contest against in-state rivals Saint Joseph’s College airs as the Division II Game of the Week on CBS Sports Network, available to 99 million households nationwide.

Kickoff is at 8 p.m. in Key Stadium, which will be full of UIndy fans wearing “Black Out” T-shirts. About 4,000 black shirts are available to the university community at the pregame pep rally, which includes free dinner and runs from 5 to 7 p.m. in the Schwitzer Student Center atrium and dining hall.

The Greyhounds (7-1, 5-0 GLVC) are coming off a decisive 52-14 Homecoming win Saturday against Lincoln. Debuting at No. 5 this week in the year’s first NCAA Division II Super Region Four rankings, they are on track for their third consecutive trip to the playoffs.
