Career Highs
A pair of CU players hit new career high scoring marks in a dominating win over UNOH on Saturday.

Meriwether's 15 points led all scorers as he was one of five players to score 10+ in the win. Sophomore Jonny Strube also saw significant time in the win vs. UNOH recording a career high 13 points and four rebounds in the game. 13 points marks the first time Strube has recorded double-digits in his short Cornerstone career. 
 
Sluis Nears Another Record 
Senior Sam Vander Sluis has already broken multiple records this season, but the senior is now nearing the program record for the most rebounds in a single season. Vander Sluis needs just 52 more rebounds to pass Jim Eppink's (1986-87) mark of 452 rebounds and become the new single season program leader. Vander Sluis recorded 442 rebounds in 2016-17 and 385 in 2016-17 to rank second and third respectively in program history. 
 
Scouting Madonna
The Crusaders come into their matchup with the Golden Eagles on a hot streak winning six of their last eight games including a road victory against no. 22 Indiana Tech. Last time out however, the Crusaders lost at home to Concordia on senior night. On the season Madonna holds a 17-8, 10-5 WHAC record sitting three games behind first place in the conference. MU has also posted a 9-3 record on their home court this season with their only home losses coming vs. Lawrence Tech, Rochester College, and Concordia. Individually, Dwight Burton has been one of the best scorers in the conference, ranking second in the WHAC at 21.2 PPG. Burton also leads the team in assists, averaging 3.0 a game. Joshua Reynolds and Jonathan Swift also are strong offensive contributors for the Crusaders, averaging 15+ points per game this season. Madonna is coached by Noel Emenhiser who has been at the helm since the 2009-10 season.
