About this Event
Get ready, Salukis! "Arch Madness" is calling, and we’re taking over St. Louis this March!
The SIU Alumni Association is once again hosting its traditional pre-game gatherings before every Saluki men’s basketball matchup in the MVC Tournament, and you’re invited to be part of the excitement.
This year, alumni and fans will rally in a VIP lower-level space, behind the main bar inside Ballpark Village, just steps away from the Hilton St. Louis at the Ballpark, the official Saluki tournament headquarters. We’ll have a hot buffet of appetizers waiting for you, and the bar will be open with drinks available for purchase. It’s the perfect place to fuel up, reconnect, and share Saluki pride.
Then join your fellow Salukis for an electrifying team send-off, as we pack the place with maroon pride and push the Dawgs toward victory.
Specific dates and times of these events will be announced the week of the event, but you can register now to let us know you'll be there!
See you in St. Louis! Go Dawgs!!
