GAME OVERVIEW
•    Four of Millersville's five wins have come at Pucillo Gymnasium and after playing four of the last six on the road, the Marauders return home to host No. 13 Kutztown. Kutztown is Millersville's third nationally-ranked opponent in the last seven games. Millersville has lost seven in a row but the schedule has been brutal. In addition to four road games and two against top 25 teams, in additIon to Kutztown, the last eight opponents have a combined record of 97-36. Only one of the last eight opponents have a sub .500 record (West Chester).
•    In Millersville's opening nine games, it went 5-4 and 4-0 at home. During that stretch, Millersville shot 39.4 percent from three and forced 139 turnovers while committing just 94. But in the seven games since, Millersville has forced just 111 turnovers while committing 96 and its 3--point field goal percentage has dipped to .336. Marcus Adkison averaged 18.7 points per game (.430 from three) in the first nine games but is averaging 14.3 (.347 from three) in the last seven.
•    Millersville has seen positives in the recent slide, though. Amadou Kaba's shooting percentage has jumped from .364 in the opening nine games to .543 during the last seven. In the same span, Jordan Greene has jumped his scoring from 6.3 points per game to 11.7.
•    Amadou Kaba has led the team in blocked shots nine times, in steals six times and rebounds five times. Kaba has pulled down at 10 offensive rebounds in the last three games and double-digit boards in two of the last three. He's also recorded five steals in the last two games including a career-high three against West Chester. He has a steal in six consecutive games and a blocked shot in four consecutive games.
•    Jordan Greene has earned a start in each of the last two games and has responded by scoring 20 against Bloomsburg and 13 against his former team, West Chester. He's scoring in double figures six of the last eight games and in three in a row. He also has two 20-point performances in the last eight. Greene has made nine consecutive foul shots as well.
•    Conrad Chambers scored a career-high 27 points against West Chester, giving him a team-high 14 double-figure scoring performances including six in a row. Chambers ranks 17th in the PSAC in 3-pointers per game (2.0) and is tied for the team lead at 40 percent. Chambers has also shared the ball well, totaling 19 assists in his last four games including a career-high seven against West Chester.
•    With the series beginning in 1903-04 and with 207 meetings, Kutztown is Millersville's oldest and most familiar PSAC opponent. Kutztown has won 11-of-15 games since 2008-09 and four in a row in which Millersville has not scored more than 71 points.
•    Millersville has had fewer turnovers than its opponent in 15 of 16 games and has scored more points off of turnovers in 12 games. The Marauders are 0-5 when allowing 80 or more points and 1-6 when scoring fewer than 70. Millersville is also 0-5 when opponent shoots better than 50 percent.

SCOUTING KUTZTOWN
• Since losing at nationally-ranked and undefeated Shippensburg, Kutztown has been on a roll, winning six consecutive games and topping the 90-point mark five times. Despite ranking second in the PSAC in scoring offense (.882, first in field goal percentage (.497) and second in threes (.410), Kutztown ranks 11th in scoring defense and 17th in 3-point field goal percentage defense. The Golden Bears certainly have a knack for winning close games as four of the last five wins have each come by no more than six points.  Kutztown's only two losses have come against nationally-ranked teams.
