Even though we are still about 3 hours from the scheduled tip, apparently Cincinnati has already beaten Evansville. At least according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.

Unfortunately, it appears Ben Humrichous may be out with some type of ankle/foot injury. Nothing official but appears to have a boot on.

Aces up by 8 at the half. Not bad with two of our top players out.

I didn't watch the game so I'm curious how the Aces went from 8 up at half to getting totally dominanted? Did Cincinnati not play their starters the first half?

Ha ha ha, yes Cincinnati did play the starters the 1st half. We actually played very well the 1st half,shot 50% , this without our leading scorer and Bailey not dressed.The 2nd half Cincinnati just outplayed us,in your face defense was the reason that's why UE lost.

Cincinnati adjusted their defense at half time and shut down the Aces. Not having Humrichous and Bailey available really hurt the 9 man rotation. Losing your 2 top scorers and over 50 minutes of court time was too much.

Meanwhile, in East Lansing, Indiana State is in a three point game at the under-15 timeout in the second half. Let's go Trees.
