Bobcats host Spartans in CBI quarterfinals
Looking to catch a men’s Division I college basketball game inside the state of Ohio this week?
You have one option. The Ohio Bobcats are the only team in the Buckeye State still alive following the first full week of the postseason.
Ohio (22-11) will host UNC-Greensboro (15-18) in the quarterfinal found of the 2016 College Basketball Invitational on Monday night inside the Convocation Center. Second-year Bobcats coach Saul Phillips isn’t about to apologize for his team’s extended run.
After all, every other big-time program in the state is done. The Bobcats weren’t in the Big Dance, but they aim to make the most of the dancing time they have left anyway.
