Back on Track 
The Golden Eagles got back on track last week with two 15+ point victories on the road at Siena Heights and Concordia. Cornerstone is now 17-10 on the year as they end the regular season with a bye on Wednesday before traveling to Lawrence Tech for their Senior Day on Saturday at 3 p.m. 
 
WHAC Seeding
The Golden Eagles have a chance at anything from the four to six seed still with just one game remaining. CU currently sits in the five spot but could see movement depending on the results of Rochester and Lawrence Tech contests. Rochester is the four seed and would need to lose both remaining games with Cornerstone winning their final contest for CU to move to the four spot and host a WHAC Tournament Quarterfinal. Rochester's two remaining games are vs. Siena Heights and at UNOH. Lawrence Tech still has a chance to hop Cornerstone as well and drop CU to the six spot. LTU needs to win their final two games to make that happen vs. Lourdes and vs. Cornerstone. Winning both would tie the two sides in the standings, and then give the Blue Devils the tiebreaker based on the head-to-head of beating Cornerstone twice this season. 
 
Career High for Rowlinson
Sophomore Luke Rowlinson finally broke the 30-point mark with a 30 piece at Concordia for a new career high. Rowlinson was 12-23 from the field and 2-9 from deep and added a team high eight rebounds in the victory as well. 
 
History vs. Lawrence Tech 
Cornerstone has dominated LTU in the all-time results going 19-3 since Lawrence Tech joined the WHAC in 2012-13. All three losses have come in the last five years as CU fell in 2019, 2021, and the last meeting earlier this year. 
 
Scouting Lawrence Tech
The Blue Devils have hit a rough patch to end the regular season, going 0-3 with losses to Concordia, UNOH, and Rochester in their last three games. Sophomore Andrew Rinn leads the WHAC in scoring at 18.6 points per game and is scoring nearly 27% of the LTU points per game on average. In his last three games, Rinn scored 26 against Concordia and UNOH, but was held to a season second lowest of seven points vs. Rochester. Saturday's contest will be between the conference's two leading scorers as Cory Ainsworth sits right behind Rinn at 17.5 PPG in 2022-23. 
 
WHAC Championship
(6) Indiana Tech can secure their third WHAC Regular Season Title in the last four years with a win vs. UM-Dearborn. IIT has a two-game lead with two games remaining with one of those games to be played against second place Lourdes on Saturday, February 18th. The Warriors could secure the title before that contest, but a loss to UM-Dearborn could result in Saturday's game being a winner takes the WHAC Regular Season Title.
