Men's Basketball resumes conference play on Wednesday night as they travel to Tullahoma, Tenn. to play Motlow State. Tip-off is scheduled for 8:30 ET.
The Cougars will hope a win in tonight's contest will boost their spot in the TCCAA standings. They currently sit at sixth overall with a 2-3 conference record and a 5-8 overall record and suffered a loss in their last game vs. Gadsden State. The Bucks sit at ninth overall in the standings with a 7-11 overall mark and a 1-5 record in conference play. They have also lost their last six games, including their most recent at Itawamba on Monday.
In route to their 2019 TCCAA Championship, Cleveland State knocked off Motlow State 92-76 in the quarterfinals of the TCCAA Tournament in their last meeting on Mar. 3 and will hope to carry that momentum into this contest.
After this game, the Cougars will return home to play Columbia State on Saturday. Gametime is set for 4:00 ET.
