LAST TIME OUT

 NMU is coming off their first road trip of the season in which they split their two-game series with Saginaw Valley State. Following a close comeback on Friday night, in which the men nearly overcame an 18-point deficit in the final 10 minutes of play, the Wildcats went on to post a convincing 69-57 victory on Saturday. 

NMU VERSUS SAGINAW VALLEY

 The Wildcats are 70-67 all-time against the Bulldogs. In their most recent meeting, the eighth-seeded NMU team stunned top-seed FSU on their home court, 70-69, to advance to the GLIAC Semifinals.

In their two regular-season meetings with the Bulldogs in 2019-20 the men went 0-2, losing by just three points on the road to conclude their away slate of competition.
