Press Row Preview – Aces at Murray State

MURRAY, Ky. – As tip approaches inside the CFSB Center, the Purple Aces men's basketball team faces a big test against Murray State. The Racers pose one of the top defenses in the nation, leading the NCAA in 3-point defense (20.5%) while allowing the opposition to shoot just 35.1% from the field, second in the country.

The University of Evansville is coming off of a tough game against Jacksonville State where the Gamecocks held the Aces to just 50 points on 30.8% shooting. It was one of those games where the shots were going in and out of the basket for UE.
