TIFTON - Saturday is Game Day at Gressette Gymnasium as the Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College Stallions and Fillies return to basketball action with a doubleheader against Beacon College.

Beacon's men are 2-0 this season, having defeated both Southeast Christian College and the University of Fort Lauderdale. The Lady Blazers are 0-1. Their loss was to the University of Fort Lauderdale. Both Fillies and Stallions are looking for their first home wins of the 2025-26 season.
