DeKalb | Men’s basketball (16-6, 5-4 MAC) opened MAC-play this season with a victory over the Ohio University Bobcats (13-7, 4-4 MAC) on Jan. 6 and will look to sweep the season series with a win over the Bobcats on Saturday. Senior guard Travon Baker scored a career-high 25 points, including 13 in the final minutes, in the last meeting between the two teams. Sophomore center Marin Maric posted a double-double with 22 points and 14 rebounds. The game had 10 ties and 18 lead changes. NIU shot 50 percent (22-44) from the field in the contest, including 47.6 percent (10-21) from three. Redshirt sophomore guard Jaaron Simmons led the Bobcats with 19 points on 7-14 shooting, while forwards junior Kenny Kaminski and senior Treg Setty contributed 15 points each. Simmons was named MAC East Player of the Week after averaging 12.5 assists, 10.5 points, 5 rebounds and 0.5 steals per game in a week that saw the Bobcats go 2-0.
