EDISON, N.J. – The 2023-24 schedule is complete for Fairfield University Men's Basketball, as the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) has announced the conference slate for the upcoming campaign. The Stags will play 10 league games at Leo D. Mahoney Arena, beginning with a visit from reigning MAAC Champion Iona on Friday, Dec. 1.
 
In total, the Stags will play 14 home games as a part of the 31-game slate. Season ticket packages for Fairfield Men's Basketball are on sale now at FairfieldStags.com/TIX. For more information, contact the Fairfield Athletics Ticket Office at 203-254-4136.
 
In addition to hosting the Gaels, the opening MAAC weekend sends the Stags to Rider on Dec. 3. Fairfield then returns to non-conference play to finish out December with a stretch that includes home games against Wagner on Dec. 17 and Le Moyne on Dec. 30.
 
MAAC plays resumes in 2024 with a visit to Siena on Jan. 5 followed by a home contest against Marist on Jan. 7. The Stags then embark on the "Buffalo trip" to tangle with Niagara and Canisius on Jan. 12 and 14, before returning home to host Saint Peter's on Jan. 19. The month of January concludes with a short jaunt to Manhattan on Jan. 21 and an in-state clash at Mahoney Arena against Quinnipiac on Jan. 28.
 
February begins with a return trip to Iona on Feb. 2 and the Connecticut end of the home-and-home with Manhattan on Feb. 4. In a rare Thursday-Saturday weekend set, the Stags stay at Mahoney Arena to host Rider on Feb. 8 and then visit Saint Peter's on Feb. 10. Three of the final four February games will be held in Fairfield as the Stags welcome Niagara and Mount St. Mary's on Feb. 16 and 18 and – after making the quick trip to Quinnipiac on Feb. 23 – host a rematch with Siena on Feb. 25.
 
A trip to Marist on March 1 rings in the final month of the regular season. The Stags will then close the home slate on March 7 against Canisius and then make the Southern trek to Mount St. Mary's on March 9 to wrap up the 20-game journey.
 
The 2024 MAAC Championship returns to Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City from March 12-16 with an automatic bid to the NCAA Championship on the line.
