Men's basketball looks to sweep season series with NIU in Dekalb

Following up a pair of back-to-back losses, the Central Michigan men’s basketball team wants to bounce back against a Mid-American Conference foe they have had success against.

CMU (15-10, 4-8 MAC) will head to Dekalb, Ill. to take on Northern Illinois (11-14, 4-8) at 8 p.m. on Feb. 13 in the NIU Convocation Center. It will be a rematch of CMU’s 81-67 over the Huskies on Jan. 30 from McGuirk Arena.

Both teams are currently tied for fifth in the MAC West Division, trailing first place Toledo (18-7, 10-2) by six games with six regular season league games remaining.
