Thursday night, the WKU Men’s basketball team (14-14) was able to cash in on one of their big opportunities of this weekend’s road swing with a victory over Middle Tennessee 78-72.
The win over the Blue Raiders puts the Toppers 1-1 with MTSU on the season after WKU dropped a game in the final seconds earlier in the season in Diddle Arena.
WKU looked good on offense as they were able to get to the basket with ease. The Hilltoppers outscored MTSU 40-26 in the paint while also grabbing 11 more rebounds than the Blue Raiders in the contest.
