On the road Tuesday against Akron, the Bowling Green men’s basketball team entered James A. Rhodes Arena looking to wrap up the end of the 2019 conference schedule strong. A strong showing against one of the worst shooting teams in the MAC would be an added bonus with a trip to Cleveland for the 2019 postseason tournament already clinched.
But fueled by an uncharacteristically brilliant night shooting the ball, Akron was able to take advantage of a poor shooting night from the Falcons to secure a blowout win. The Zips made 14 3-pointers on the night and saw three different players score 20 or more points, all while holding Bowling Green to just 32.
