Saturday's Games

Men
Cleveland State 46
Butler 51
The Bulldogs managed to survive for the victory. During the last 9:03 of the game, the dawgs only scored nine points. The defense stepped up though and only allowed the Cleveland State Vikings to score 6 points in the last 14:32 of the game. Looking at the offensive statistics, the scored 40.5% of their shots, which is not that bad. Both teams committed a plethora of fouls. The Bulldogs had 19 and the Vikings had 23. The dawgs also committed 11 turnovers. Some of them were easy take aways. Overall the game was ugly, but a good game to get a W due to the fact they lost at Cleveland State earlier this season. The Bulldogs have secured at least the 2 seed in the conference tournament and have a 2 game lead over the second place team, Wright State.
Next Game: Wednesday 8:00 @ Illiniois-Chicago

Women
Butler 59
Green Bay 84
I knew after Butler played Green Bay that it was going to be a tough game for the Lady Bulldogs. Looking at the womens league standings the Green Bay has only one lost and the second place team, Cleveland State, is 4 games behind. After the game Butler is tied for 6th place. The big keys to Green Bay's victory were scoring 51 points in the first half and shooting 52.5% from the field.
Next Game: Thursday vs. Wright Sate 7:00 @ Hinkle
