Cleveland State at Detroit

Tipoff: 2 p.m. at Calihan Hall, Detroit.

Radio: WHK AM/1220.

Notable: Sixth game in 12 days for CSU (7-1, 1-0 Horizon League) and second straight Horizon League game. Detroit (3-5, 0-1) has lost four of its past five, including setbacks to Akron, Bowling Green and Youngstown State. While the Vikings are gradually building their bench depth, the Titans have been depleted, particularly on the baseline where 6-10, 255-pound senior Eli Holman is on a leave of absence, and 6-8, 230-pound senior Nick Minnerath recently suffered a season-ending knee injury. The Vikings are coming off a last-second road win Thursday at Wright State.

Next for CSU: Thursday at Robert Morris, 7 p.m.
