Cardinals Open 2017-18 Season at GLVC/GLIAC Challenge

The William Jewell men's basketball team hits the road on Friday to open the 2017-18 season with two games at the GLVC/GLIAC Challenge. The event is held in Westville, Ind. by Purdue Northwest, and will run for four seasons, with the Cardinals playing host in November 2018. To start things off the Cardinals will face the Panthers of Davenport University on Friday evening at 5:00 p.m. CST followed by a match up with the host Pride on Saturday at 3:00 p.m. CST. 

Purdue Northwest is entering their first season of NCAA II status and are coming off a season that saw them go 13-17 overall.  Meanwhile the Panthers are in year two of the transition to NCAA II and went 24-9 during the 2016-17 season, but lost their top three scorers to graduation. While the Cardinals dropped their only exhibition game to Iowa 105-81, they did lead at the half 46-45 and saw three players post double-figures. 

Following the GLVC/GLIAC Challenge the Cardinals travel to Missouri Western on November 15 before hosting their home opener on Saturday, November 18 against Southwest Baptist.
