Marian and CUC are deadlocked in 16 meetings. 3 CONTROLLING THE GLASS: The Sabres are 5-0 this season when outrebounding their opponents. In the five wins, Marian holds a combined +67 rebounding margin, including a +6.1 rebounds per game average, which ranks atop the NACC. 4 NEARING THE 1,000-POINT CLUB: Senior Cody Veleke (1,022) eclipsed the milestone at Wis. Lutheran back on Dec. 5, while Jeff Harris (988) is very near to doing the same. Senior Sam Koslowski is also within reach, needing just 193 points to reach 1,000. 5 A LOOK AHEAD: Marian hits the road in a pivotal early season match-up against NACC preseason favorite, Aurora, Friday, Dec. 20. Following more than a two-week break, the Sabres return to the Sadoff for games against Benedictine (Jan. 4) and Rockford (Jan. 11). Probable Starters Marian University Pos. Ht. Yr.
