Troy is led by first-year head coach Adam Howard. Bringing 16 years of coaching experience to the program, Howard and his staff have spent the summer assembling a roster featuring 12 newcomers.
Tipoff from Trojan Arena is set for 6 p.m., with free admission.
🔼 All Tuned Up. Now we wait until Monday.
The Troy women’s basketball team wrapped up its exhibition slate with a 79-57 victory over Tuskegee on Tuesday night at Trojan Arena.
Four newcomers led the way for the Trojans, with Hannah Smith leading the team in scoring. She shot 5-of-10 from the field, including 5-of-6 from inside the arc for 15 points. Aniya Hubbard also had 12 points, tying Tiauna King (10 points) for a team-high two 3-pointers. Maliyah Meeks fell one rebound short of a double-double, with 10 points and nine rebounds – she also added a block and a steal.
Shakirah Edwards returned for her second season as a Trojan and stuffed the stat sheet with seven points, four rebounds, two assists, two steals and a team-high five blocks. All 11 Trojans who checked in had a steal in the ballgame, for a total of 19 steals.

Lockridge and the Milwaukee Brewers are up 3-1 in the best-of-seven series with the Tampa Bay Rays heading into tonight’s game five in Tampa.
The former Trojans battled injuries throughout the 2026 season, playing in 39 games for the Brew Crew, hitting .277 with 12 RBIs and six stolen bases.
🔼 The Fall Finale. Paced by an even-par round from Mara Dajer, the Troy women's golf team moved up two spots after Tuesday's final round of the Pat Bradley Invitational at the Miami Lakes Golf Course as the Trojans closed out competition for the fall.
Dajer carded 16 pars around a birdie on the par-4 eighth and a bogey on the par-3 seventh to shoot Troy's best round of the tournament. She climbed 19 spots individually into a tie for 36th.
Troy shot its best team round of the tournament, an 11-over 299, six shots better than its second-round tally. The Trojans finished the week tied for third with 143 total pars and tied for fifth, shooting 8-under on the par-5s.
Today’s Trojan Top Performance, brought to you by Conecuh Sausage, is first-year women’s basketball standout Hannah Smith, who connected on 5-of-6 inside the arc for a team-leading 15 points in Tuesday’s exhibition win over Tuskegee.
