Cleveland State stays ahead of Horizon League pack in first place

By Kyle Nagel | Friday, February 3, 2012, 10:30 PM

Entering a three-game Saturday in the Horizon League, including a Wright State visit to second-place Valparaiso, the top two teams are hoping to continue separation from the pack.

Cleveland State took care of its part on Friday night.

The Vikings stayed alone in first place in the league at 9-2 (19-4 overall) with a 65-47 win against Loyola. They shot 67.6 percent in the game with double figures from three players, led by 16 from senior guard Jeremy Montgomery, who added four assists, three steals and two rebounds.

CSU and Valparaiso (16-8, 9-3) are the only league teams with fewer than five losses, which has provided some separation. Three teams — Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Youngstown State and Butler — will enter Saturday’s games tied for third place.

Wright State (11-13, 6-6) is tied with Detroit for sixth place. Teams finishing in places 3-6 (after tiebreakers) host first-round games in the Horizon League tournament, so that No. 6 spot is valuable.
