Traverse City Cadillac, MI, October 21, 2026 —
Ferris State University’s men’s basketball team will host Calvin University for an exhibition game in Big Rapids on October 22, with former university employee Ed Douma set to be honored.
The announcement identifies the matchup as an exhibition, but does not provide a start time, venue or additional details about the event. It also does not specify what form the recognition of Douma will take or describe his position or length of service at Ferris State.
No year was included with the October 22 date. Further information about the game, including whether other activities are planned, was not provided.
The available details establish the event’s two central elements: a men’s basketball exhibition between Ferris State and Calvin, and a tribute to Douma during the occasion. The announcement does not include comments from the universities, coaches, players or Douma.
With those details still unspecified, the game is identified as a Big Rapids event, but the announcement does not name the facility where it will be played. It likewise does not offer information about ticketing or broadcast arrangements. Those particulars were not included in the information provided.
