Men’s Basketball Has Shot at Revenge on Thursday Night

After clinching their first winning season in five years on Sunday, the Eastern Illinois Panthers have a chance to even the season series against Murray State tonight. The Racers have already handed the Panthers a 15-point loss this season and are riding into tonight’s game with a 22-game winning streak and an unblemished OVC record (14-0). This game will be the last of the regular season for the Panthers. They will still have the OVC Tournament next week, however.

Having already clinched a spot in the OVC Tournament, tonight’s game only has bearings on where the Panthers will be seeded. They can be seeded as high as third and as low as sixth. The higher seed will insure a better draw in the tournament and give the Panthers a better chance to advance through the tournament into the finals.
