One of the best Missouri State men's basketball seasons over the last two decades concluded on Saturday afternoon in Evansville with the Bears winning 88-79.

The win gives the Bears their second-best conference record since the 1999-00 season with only the Cuonzo Martin regular-season championship year topping it in 2011.

It also guarantees Missouri State a tie for second in the MVC — the first time it's tied for second in the league since 2005-06.

Missouri State still awaits its seeding in the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament which starts next week in St.
