The tour will include stops in Rome and Florence, Italy, and Split and Dubrovnik, Croatia, and will pit the Aggies against teams from across Europe.
“This trip is a great opportunity for our team, both on and off the court,” Calhoun said. “It’s a chance for us to spend some quality time together and really to speed up the bonding process. We’re looking forward to being able to take this trip as a team and to get a jump start on the season.”
The tour will feature three games against international competition. USU will first face Stella Azzurra of Rome’s Serie B on Monday, Aug. 12, in Rome.
