CLEVELAND STATE at VALPARAISO (2:35 p.m. Sunday at Athletics-Recreation Center in Valparaiso, Indiana)

Six games into the Horizon League season, Cleveland State is tied with Milwaukee at 5-1 for first place in the league, and Valparaiso and Youngstown State are one game behind. A win for Cleveland State (15-3, 5-1) and a Milwaukee loss could put the Vikings in a solid position. Cleveland State just beat Butler 76-69 as Jeremy Montgomery scored 18 points and dished off five assists. The Vikings have lost to Hofstra, South Florida and Youngstown State but did take Vanderbilt down at the start of the season. That’s still a feather in the Cleveland cap. Valparaiso (11-7, 4-2) has losses against Milwaukee and Wright State in league play, but the Crusaders beat Youngstown State 76-62 behind Kevin Van Wijk’s 23 points and seven rebounds.

"Crawford is playing better now and there is no question (Brandon) Wood is going to have to play and maybe (Keith) Appling," Izzo said. "But that is gonna be a big key, how do we cover (Shurna)? … It will be a little bit of a challenge for Day-Day. I'm putting that challenge on him and Wood. Those two guys are going to have to raise their defensive game a couple of notches."
...
"I'll be able to guard Shurna in the post, for the most part, but it will be challenging for our guards, guarding Crawford. It will be a test for (Wood), but I've got faith in him."
