MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. - The Central Michigan men's basketball team has experienced its share of success the past two seasons.

The Chippewas have captured two MAC West titles, put together the program's first back-to-back winning seasons since the late 1980s and made two postseason tournament appearances.

Mirroring the program's recent rise on the court has been its progress in the classroom.

In 2016, CMU led the conference with four Academic All-MAC selections, twice as many as any other team. It marked the third consecutive year that the Chippewas had more players honored than any other team in the league.
