Rivalry weekend in Washtenaw County--EMU 67 CMU 64

How many CMU undergrads does it take to screw in a lightbulb? Four, but it's a three credit course.

EMU 67 and CMU Chumpewas 64. And with the football finale falling in EMU's favor as well, EMU is 2 of 3 against CMU in the so called big sports (and don't make us bring up women's softball). It's OK though CMU grads and fans, you can take solace that soon the weather will warm and your casinos will be in bloom.

EMU got an overwhelming boost from their bench with their three game high scorers all coming off the pine for Head Coach Charles Ramsey. Justin Dobbins with 15, Jarred Axon with 14, and Travis Lewis with 13 led the way for Eastern Michigan who improve to 10-14 overall, and a VERY respectable 6-6 in Mid American Conference play. Eastern has won 3 of 4 and next play at MAC and in state rival, Western Michigan. 9pm Wednesday from the Zoo. Western is only a game back in the MAC race having previously lost to Eastern on January 12, 81-71. Go Get 'Em Eastern, nothing says 'schadenfreude' like Bronco tears. OK maybe Chumpewa tears.
