INDIANAPOLIS – The UIndy men's basketball team was unanimously chosen as the 2023-24 GLVC preseason favorite, the league office announced on Wednesday. The Greyhounds, who also topped last year's preseason poll, went on to go 17-3 in conference action and earn the No. 1 seed in the league postseason tournament.
The preseason poll is determined by the league's head coaches, who are not permitted to vote for their own team.
