A full day of basketball mid-week is great thing. When it’s our favorite conference, it’s fantastic. If the games are as nail biting as they were today, then it’s marvelously exquisite. Here is a break down of the days action.
#8 Western Michigan Broncos 67, #1 Central Michigan Chippewas 63
Central charged out to a big lead, but Western Michigan battled back a bit and kept within in striking distance. The last minute and a half was sheer basketball awesomeness.
#4 Northern Illinois Huskies 72, #5 Ohio Bobcats 71
Ohio jumped all over the Huskies early, playing great defense and leading after the first quarter, 23-10.
