Lid-lifter: Central Michigan opens regular season Friday night versus IU-Kokomo

Points will be aplenty.

Central Michigan men’s basketball opens its regular season in the friendly confines of McGuirk Arena Friday night versus NAIA opponent Indiana-Kokomo. Tip-off is slated for 7 p.m.

The Cougars already have four games under their belt, dropping to 2-2 Saturday with a 99-86 loss to Indiana University Northwest.

Meanwhile, the Chippewas are coming off a 91-74 triumph over Slippery Rock Saturday in a home exhibition game.

Friday’s regular season opener figures to be a high-scoring affair due to the style of play Kokomo brings to the table in addition to Central Michigan holding talent advantages all over the court.
