The UB Men’s Basketball team’s schedule is very much a mixed bag this year, combining some difficult road challenges with marguee matchups and some more manageable home tilts. Wednesday night in Bowling Green Kentucky fits firmly in the first category. The Hilltoppers under Rick Stansbury have been a solid program and tough to beat at home.
At to the challenge the absence of Jeenathan Williams, arguably their best player, and another rotation regular in Curtis Jones and the degree of difficulty was raised even higher. The Bulls rose to the moment in what was likely their best 40 minute effort of the season, all things considered, in securing a 77-67 victory.
