LIMA, Ohio - The Indiana Tech men's basketball team won their eighth straight contest this past weekend, as they defeated the Racers of University of Northwestern Ohio by a final score of 76-62. 

Rog Stein paced the Warriors, nearly securing a double-double, as he scored 17 points and grabbed eight rebounds to go along with three steals. Cory McKinney had a very solid outing as well, scoring 15 points, grabbing four rebounds, and dishing two assists. Grant Smith was effective off the drive, getting to the line three times and shot 100% from the charity stripe, knocking in six foul shots. He finished the night with 14 points and seven rebounds. Steve Helm didn't have his shots falling from deep, per usual, but he still managed to pour in 13 points, three assists, and two steals on the night. 

The Orange and Black forced thirteen Racer turnovers and converted those into 21 points. Tech's bigs used their advantage inside, out-scoring UNOH in the paint, 34-22. The Warriors also shot above their average free-throw percentage (69.6%), shooting an efficient 78.9% clip, making 15 of 19.

Indiana Tech improves to 20-6 on the season, making it seven straight 20-win seasons for the program, and five straight for head coach Ted Albert. The Warriors sit atop the WHAC standings (14-2) by two games over second-placed Madonna (12-4). Tech will look ahead to Wednesday night, as they'll host the Siena Heights Saints (6-17, 3-12 WHAC) as part of a double-header with the women's program. With the latter, starting at 6:00 PM, and the men beginning play at 8:00 PM at the Schaefer Center.
