Western vs Illinois State.
7PM, Tuesday (Dec 20) at Western Hall.
It will be "HOLIDAY CELEBRATION" night.

Western is now on semester break, so the students are gone. And Macomb High School has a home boy's basketball game tonight vs Liberty. That will have an impact on tonight's crowd.

Illinois State has a 3-6 record. But they have had 3 of their starters out with injuries. They are now back and ready to play tonight. Illinois State was picked to finish 8th (out of 10) in the Missouri Valley Conference.

The heat is on their coach Barb Smith. She was recently given a salary advancement to $225,000 per year. The local fans in B-N have not been happy with the performance so far this season.

Illinois State has dominated the series 42-3 all-time. But Western won last year's game 79-64 (12-28-15).
