Last regular season game is Saturday, 2 PM Central time, at Denver.
Denver's record is:
Overall 16-12
Conf. 7-6
Home 7-5
Away 8-5

The last time WIU and Denver met up, we set an NCAA record for most combined 3-pointers made in a game and set the school record for most 3-pointers in a game for us: http://goleathernecks.com/news/2018/1/2 ... ath=wbball in a 118-93 win.

We had 18 three-pointers in the home game with Denver. Denver also had 18 three-pointers. The combined total of 36 set a new NCAA record.

It was in the next game (Jan 27 vs North Dakota State) when Western set the program record with 19 three-pointers:
As a team, the Purple and Gold also drained 19 threes, which set a new program record. That record one-upped the previous of 18 set this week (Jan. 24) in the win over Denver.

Technically we did set the program record that night. We just happened to break it the next game.
