MUNCIE, Ind. — Ball State took on an opponent at home for the first time this season as Saturday it welcomed the University of Illinois at Chicago to Worthen Arena.
The Cardinals came into the matchup with a chance to record their first win this season, home or away. Coach James Whitford’s team led for much of the game against the Flames. And while UIC battled back against BSU, even taking a late lead, Ball State was still able to emerge with a 68-66 victory.
