Houston - The University of Houston men's basketball team will sign autographs and have their pictures taken this Saturday afternoon, Mar. 31, as part of Frontier Fiesta's "Family Day" activities.

The Cougars will sign autographs and have their pictures taken with Cougar fans from 2:30-3:30 p.m. in the Lisa Sachs Pavilion, which is located next to the stage on the West side of Robertson Stadium.

The Cougars are coming off an 18-15 season this year and enjoyed their best season in Conference USA with a third-place finish after posting a 10-6 league record during the regular season. Houston also advanced to the championship game of the C-USA Tournament for the first time in school history.

This marks the second straight year that the men's basketball team has been a part of UH's popular Frontier Fiesta. Frontier Fiesta is a student-run, student-led festival hosted by the University of Houston to promote scholarship, community, and education in the University of Houston students, staff, and faculty, as well as in the Houston community. Activities begin at noon on Saturday, March 31.
