Wake Forest Demon Deacons Basketball Tickets

The Wake Forest Demon Deacons is one of the multitude of North Carolina teams that populate the Atlantic Coast Conference. This means that Wake Forest fans are fortunate to enjoy multiple natural rivalries on their home court each season. While many fans will forever associate the Demon Deacons with the dominant force named Tim Duncan, Wake Forest is the scrappy upstart playing against blue chip programs such as University of North Carolina and Duke University. While the Demon Deacons team is often the underdog in conference games, it has been known to pull the occasional seismic upset. Wake Forest has been playing basketball since 1906 and has won more than 1,500 games in its history. This includes 23 appearances in the NCAA Tournament, most recently in 2017.
