Ball State 83, NIU 48: At Muncie, Ind., the Cardinals (18-5 overall, 10-1 Mid-American Conference) shot 52.9% from 3-point range while the Huskies (4-18, 2-9) shot 20%.
Nevaeh Wingate led NIU with 12 points while Sa’Mahn Johnson added 10.
“Ball State is a well-oiled machine,” NIU head coach Jacey Brooks said. “We were able to hang with them in the first quarter because we were getting defensive stops so we could flow into our offense. When that stopped happening in the second, we also struggled to score. You have to play well for a full 40 minutes to have a chance against team like Ball State and we didn’t do that tonight.”
