Lots of missed 3's early

After Ryan Kreklow knocked down a pair of triples for the Bears early, they missed a lot.

Missouri State wasn't getting many open looks from outside the perimeter as it started 2-for-8 from deep. Illinois State was more efficient with Zach Copland's pair of 3's with the team taking four total early.
