MUNCIE, Ind. - It appears as if the Cardinals picked up right where they left off from last year's record-breaking season after opening the game with a stingy defense and an offensive rhythm that couldn't be stopped. That hard core toughness led to Ball State's impressive, 98-45, win over IU Kokomo in exhibition action Wednesday night in Worthen Arena.
The Cardinals handled the ball well, made good passes, and found open shots especially inside the paint. The well-rounded offense allowed Ball State to do what they do best and that's make baskets from all areas of the court.
