MAC chase begins with Ohio looking to curb turnovers
Ohio sophomore forward Jason Carter ranks sixth in the MAC in scoring with 18.0 points per game. The Bobcats (8-4) begin play in the Mid-American Conference on Saturday, Jan. 5, 2019 with a 2 p.m. tipoff against Northern Illinois in the Convocation Center.With conference play on the doorstep, Saul Phillips said the Bobcats have to do just one thing to become a contender.
“When the biggest enemy in the room is yourself, that can be worked on. We can deal with that,” Phillips said after Ohio wrapped up non-conference play with a 68-66 win over Florida International on Dec. 30.
