After the loss to North Florida Saturday afternoon, Eastern Michigan men’s basketball coach Rob Murphy made some adjustments to the starting lineups, having Willie Mangum and Tim Bond come off the bench, putting Jodan Price and Raven Lee in the starting position.
It seemed to help as Eastern Michigan won its Mid-American Conference season opener against Central Michigan University Wednesday night, 99-80, in Mount Pleasant.
“Ray Lee, obviously to me, is the best guard and best scorer in the MAC, and today he played like it," Murphy said. "Jodan Price gave us a huge lift earlier when we were down ten and hit a couple threes to keep us in distance.
