CEDAR FALLS, Iowa --- UNI men's basketball will go international this summer as the Panthers embark on a four-game tour in Brazil.

The Panthers will travel to Brazil on July 25 and return to the United States on August 3 in the program's first international trip since visiting Italy in 2019. UNI's ten-day tour will feature the Panthers playing two games in Jundiai, just outside the capital city of Sao Paulo, and a pair of contests in Rio de Janeiro. The tour will also give student-athletes the unique opportunity to visit famous Brazilian landmarks such as Copacabana Beach and the Christ the Redeemer statue.
