Game Wrap Up: An ugly win...

An ugly win is much better then an ugly loss.  It took quite a while, but Valpo was able to pull a way and win this one 59-48 over Northern Illinois.  Valpo played without Jay Harris today, who hopefully will be healthy and able to go this Friday when Valpo travels down I-65 to take on IUPUI.

I didn't follow much of the game except for the tweets from The Times writer Paul Oren.  Give him a follow if you don't already, @NWIOren!

Player of the Game
Ryan Broekhoff: 19 points and 11 rebounds

POTG runner up
Will Bogan: 18 points 5-9 from the field including 4-8 from 3 point range and a rarely seen from a Valpo player perfect 4-4 from the free throw line

Notable performance
Erik Buggs: While he only scored two points (both from the line) he did manage to play without fouling tonight.  37 minutes of action and only 1 personal foul.  He contributed 6 assists, 5 rebounds and 3 steals while only turning the ball over 3 times.

Up Next
Up next Valpo will travel to Indianapolis to take on IUPUI Friday in their final tune up before fully embarking in Horizon League play....and SectionEE will be there!
