CHICAGO- The UIC men's basketball team caps a stretch of four consecutive road games this Saturday night when the Flames head north to face Milwaukee inside U.S. Cellular Arena.
Tip between the Flames (10-10, 3-7 Horizon League) and the Panthers (13-8, 8-3 Horizon League) is slated for 7 p.m.
The game will air live on 560 AM WIND, with Adam Levinson and UIC legend Kenny Williams courtside to call the action.
Fans can also watch the game live online through the Horizon League Network.
The Flames have won four of the last five in their series against the Panthers, but Milwaukee was the victor in the last encounter between the two teams, a 71-66 Panther win against UIC at the Pavilion on Dec. 30, 2008.
Sophomore guard Robo Kreps is coming off a 17-point performance against Green Bay this past Wednesday. Kreps matched a career-high with five three-point baskets made against the Phoenix, helping him score in double figures for the fourth time in five games to average 14.8 ppg in that span.
The senior duo of Josh Mayo and Scott VanderMeer remain atop the Horizon League statistical rankings, with Mayo serving as the league's leading scorer (16.4 ppg) and VanderMeer rating as the conference's top rebounder (8.7 rpg) and shot-blocker (2.5 bpg).
The Flames will end a rigorous month of January that featured six road games in the last eight contests. UIC will return home for three straight at the Pavilion beginning next Thursday, Feb. 5 versus Cleveland State at 7 p.m.
