MUNCIE, Ind. — Ball State coach Brady Sallee reached a milestone on Saturday in Ball State's 88-63 victory at Eastern Michigan.

In his sixth season with Ball State, he became the program's all-time winningest coach with 119 wins (against 72 losses). He passed former head coach Tracy Roller, who coached at Ball State from 2001-08.

When asked by an ESPN broadcaster after the game about the milestone victory, he deflected credit.

"I don't really keep up with that stuff," Sallee said. "I'll tell you who set that mark was a great staff, a great group of players that I inherited when I came here six years ago and have been with me.
