Men's Polo Gears Up For The Bill Field Invitational

11/14/2022 11:00:00 AM

ITHACA, N.Y. -- Men's Polo prepares for the Bill Field Invitational, which the Big Red will host from November 17-20 at the Oxley Equestrian Center in Ithaca, N.Y.
 
The Men's side will feature Virginia, Kentucky, and the University of North Texas, plus the Big Red. The tournament begins Thursday at 5 p.m. when Virginia and Kentucky face off. Shortly after that match, the Big Red will make their first appearance in the tournament, going up against North Texas at 7 p.m.

The results of Thursday's contests will determine the matchups for the remainder of the tournament, with a consolation game set to take place on Saturday at 4 p.m. and the championship bout scheduled for Sunday at 12 p.m.
 
Cornell's Matchups
The Bill Field Invitational will be the first time this season the Big Red faces North Texas, and it is the first time these teams square up all-time.

Should Cornell go up against Virginia after the first round, they look to bounce back after losing a close match earlier this season, in which Red fell to the Cavaliers 8-6 on Oct. 26. Virginia has now won six straight and hold a 27-10 series advantage over Cornell since 2001.
