HOUSTON – HBU men's basketball hosts Barclay for Star Wars Night in Sharp Gym this Friday evening for the Huskies' final non-conference home game of the season at 7:00 p.m. Husky fans can listen to the action via the Legacy Sports Network audio broadcast with Lonnie King, available at HBUHuskies.com.
 
HBU (3-7) heads into the matchup having dropped a pair of road contests at Saint Peter's and UTSA but owns a perfect 3-0 mark on its home floor. The Huskies will aim to push their non-conference home winning streak to 20 games with their last loss to a non-conference opponent occurring just over four years ago on Dec. 14, 2013 in an 80-70 loss to UT Arlington.
 
Freshman forward David Caraher put up career-highs of 30 points and 16 rebounds in HBU's loss at UTSA while averaging 25.5 points and 10.5 rebounds in the team's two games last week. He was 7-of-12 from behind the arc and knocked down 16-of-30 from the floor. Caraher is averaging 15.7 points and 6.3 rebounds per game while also dishing out a pair of assists per outing.
 
Barclay (0-14) is led by senior guard Lex Pena who is averaging 14.2 points per game and shooting 50 percent from the field. Jay Milton, a senior forward, is adding 13.3 points per game and leads the team with a 4.6 rebounds per game average.
 
There will be four opportunities for fans in attendance to win a pair of tickets to tomorrow night's 10:45 p.m. showing of "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" at AMC First Colony 24. Chances to win will include a costume contest and a halftime trivia contest.
 
HBU hits the road for its final two non-conference contests beginning on Monday, Dec. 18, with a visit to No. 2 Michigan State in East Lansing, Mich. before heading to Nashville, Tenn. for the second time this season to face Vanderbilt on Wednesday, Dec. 20.
