13. Valparaiso (17-3, 4-1 Horizon). Last week: 14
Valparaiso looked sharp again last weekend in a win at Wright State. The Crusaders travel to last place Youngstown State and then remain on the road to face conference favorite Green Bay.
Player of the Week
UIC has been struggling, but senior guard Jay Harris turned in another high-level performance last week against Detroit. Harris shot just 4-of-11 from the field and 2-of-8 from beyond the arc, but he used 12-of-13 free throw shooting to reach 22 points. That is his third time in 15 games eclipsing the 20-point mark.
Harris also dished out eight assists.
There hasn’t been a ton to cheer about at the UIC Pavilion this year, but Harris ranks No. 6 in the nation in free throw shooting at 91.5%.
