William & Mary played most of its home games on campus at Blow Gymnasium , with one home game played off campus at the Norfolk Municipal Auditorium in Norfolk, Virginia . This was the 59th season of the collegiate basketball program at William & Mary, whose nickname is now the Tribe .[ 1]
The Indians finished in seventh place in the conference and qualified for the 1964 Southern Conference men's basketball tournament , held at the Charlotte Coliseum in Charlotte, North Carolina . William & Mary, however, fell to second-seeded West Virginia in the first round.
