Atlanta, GA – The Georgia State Panthers, with a current record of 2-2, will host the North Carolina Central Eagles (1-5) this Friday at 7 p.m. EST.

Last season, Georgia State distinguished itself at home with a 9-5 record, contributing to an overall 14-17 performance. The Panthers showcased their offensive capability, averaging 76.5 points per game while shooting 43.5% from the field and 32.6% from beyond the arc.
