News On The Horizon 12/22/2019

Saturday Notes – December 21, 2019--Hoopville
UNC Greensboro 67, Northern Kentucky 50: A solid win for the Spartans against another good mid-major program despite 33 points for the Norse’s Tyler Sharpe. The Southern Conference is another one that should give us a good race for the title between a few good teams at the top.Wright State 79, Toledo 72: Quietly, the Raiders are 10-3 as Horizon League play beckons, and while they don’t have the resume wins or avoidance of bad losses to be an at-large team, they certainly look like they’ll be among the favorites to win there as expected before the season. They got 27 points and 17 rebounds from Tanner Holden in this one.
News, Notes, and Highlighted Games: Saturday, Dec 21st--Hoops HD
HIGHLIGHTED GAMES
-WEST VIRGINIA AT YOUNGSTOWN STATE.  Kind of an odd road game for WVU, but it’s also a very winnable one.
-WRIGHT STATE AT TOLEDO.  Both teams are kind of a longshot at landing inside the bubble, but both also have really good records and are looking like they’ll both do well in their conferences, so it should be a fun UTR match-up.
