After trailing for most of the first half and by as many as 11 points to Jackson State, the Central Michigan men's basketball team won 81-72 and earned its 10th victory.
JSU (2-10) came in with just a pair of wins and gave CMU all it could handle for the first half but CMU eventually started to shoot the ball better and took control to move onto 6-0 at McGuirk Arena.
"The most important thing about a game before break is you get a win," said head coach Keno Davis. "(JSU) has some guys who play really hard and it was good for us.
