After practicing during the day Thursday, and a break for lunch, it was back to business Thursday night as the LIU Brooklyn Blackbirds headed to Nationwide Arena in Columbus for a press conference, interviews and another practice, though this one was mostly for the media.

Don't forget, Friday night at 9:20 on TBS, the LIU Brooklyn Blackbirds will play the Michigan State Spartans.
