The 2011-12 Indian Hills Community College basketball team will be unveiled at a special "Meet the Warriors Night" on Tuesday, Oct. 25.

The event will start at 7:00 p.m. at the Hellyer Student Life Center. Fans will be treated to a 3-point shoot-out and dunk contest and the Warriors will play an intrasquad scrimmage.

In addition to the IHCC basketball team, ranked No. 1 in the Sporting News preseason poll, the players and coaches of the other athletic teams at Indian Hills will also be introduced and the Cheer Squad will perform.

The players will be available to sign autographs at the conclusion of the scrimmage.

There will also be information on joining the IHCC Booster Club.

There will be free admission for the evening. The Warriors open the regular season in the Jack Blackwell Tire Company Classic Nov. 4-5.

Indian Hills coach Barret Peery will get an early look at his team against some very good competition this weekend when the Warriors take part in the Mullens-Mitchell Jamboree in Plano, Texas.

The games are treated as scrimmages per NJCAA scheduling rules.

The Warriors will play three Texas schools - South Plains, Midland and Collin - on Friday, and will take on a couple of traditional powers from Kansas in Coffeyville and Hutchinson on Saturday.
