Hilltoppers prep for EKU's pressure in first road test

The Hilltoppers won two games by double digits and saw major improvements in shooting from the first game to the second.

The question now is doing it on the road against team with a completely different approach than what the Hilltoppers have seen so far.

WKU (2-0) plays its first road game of the year at Eastern Kentucky (2-1) on Friday night in Richmond at McBrayer Arena. Ahead for the Hilltoppers is the opportunity to start the year 3-0 for the first time since the 2007-08 season, when they reached the Sweet 16.

The Colonels’ one loss came against Kentucky, with two wins against Chattanooga and Ohio University-Chillicothe.
