Bobcats NJCAA Men’s Basketball Ready to Open 2025–26 Season

The Bryant & Stratton College (Ohio) NJCAA Men's Basketball team is set to kick off its 2025–26 season with a mix of fresh talent and returning leadership. The Bobcats look to compete in the always-tough NJCAA Region 12 Division II schedule.

This year, the Bobcats return Christian Hood, a 6'1 guard from Columbus, Ohio (Copley HS). Hood's size, experience, and versatility will play a key role in leading a roster filled with new faces.

The team begins preseason play on October 17 with a scrimmage at Grove City College (Reserve Team), followed by the Appalachian JUCO Jamboree at The Bridge Sports Complex and a road test at Spire Academy.

Regular season competition tips off on November 3, when the Bobcats host Butler County CC (PA) at Ursuline College's Sister Diana Stano Athletic Center. The schedule includes several marquee conference and regional matchups against programs such as Lorain County CC, Owens CC, Hocking College, Edison State, Terra State, Lakeland CC, Clark State, and Cuyahoga CC.

Home contests will once again be played at Ursuline College, providing local fans the opportunity to support the Bobcats in person. The home slate features key battles in November against Ohio Valley CC, Lorain CCC, and Hocking College, as well as important second-semester matchups with Lakeland CC, Owens CC, Cuyahoga CC, and Clark State.

Next Up:

• October 17 – Scrimmage at Grove City College (Reserve Team), 7:00 PM

• October 19 – Appalachian JUCO Jamboree (The Bridge Sports Complex)

• October 23 – Scrimmage at Spire Academy, 5:00 PM
