Scouting Marygrove – Head coach Craig Covington (12th Season)
Head coach Craig Covington and the Mustangs are a dangerous team despite their 4-16 overall record.

The Mustangs have been led on offense and defense by Nate Taylor who is the team-leader in points (18.2), rebounds (9.6) and steals (1.6) while T.K. Dixson is their top assist man at 3.6 per night. As a team, Marygrove is putting up 72.2 points per game while allowing 86.9 points per game.

Scouting Indiana Tech – Head coach John Peckinpaugh (3rd Season)
Third year head coach John Peckinpaugh and the Warriors are one of the hottest teams in the WHAC right now as they come into the week 15-5 overall and 10-2 in league play. Indiana Tech has won its last seven league contests since falling to Cornerstone back on December 3 and only non-conference setback to Shawnee State separates them from a 12-game winning streak. Miles Robinson, who was recently named to the Bevo Francis Top-100 watch list, leads the way as the senior guard is averaging 20.6 points per game while six others are putting up at least 9.6 points per night. Indiana Tech loves the deep-ball as they rank No. 7 in the country in 3-pt FG Made per Game (10.6) and they also get it done inside the paint defensively as they are No. 12 in the NAIA in Blocks per Game (4.0).
