Women's Basketball Heads To Cleveland State On Thursday
Feb. 3, 2010
CLEVELAND - The UIC women's basketball team continues its three-game road trip and hits the hardwood once again on Thursday night when they take on the Cleveland State Vikings at 6:00 p.m. CT in Cleveland, Ohio. The Flames (9-11, 6-3 Horizon League) have won two in a row after knocking off Loyola on Saturday, 70-66, and Green Bay the week before, 81-72. The victory over Green Bay was UIC's first over a nationally-ranked opponent in program history and only the sixth win over the Phoenix all-time. The Vikings (10-10) enter Thursday's tilt having dropped two straight at Wright State and Detroit last weekend; however, they rattled off four straight wins prior to that including a 73-64 triumph over the Flames on Jan. 9th which kicked off the streak. Horizon League Preseason Player of the Year Kailey Klein had a game-high 26 points and 11 rebounds in that game to lead Cleveland State, while UIC's Jasmine Bailey had 18 points and five steals to lead her team. Thursday's game can be seen live on the Horizon League Netork at www.horizonleaguenetwork.tv.
