Men's Basketball Beats St. Francis (Pa.) In CIT For First Postseason Win Since 1975
Following a 19-win regular season and another win in the Mid-American Conference Tournament (to get to 20 victories), the BGSU men's basketball team earned a bid to the CollegeInsider.com Tournament and went on the road to face St. Francis (Pa.) in the opening round. Bowling Green picked up a 67-64 win to earn the program's first national postseason tournament victory since a win in the NCI in 1975.

Hockey Sets Attendance Record Against Ohio State
On Nov. 14, 5,353 fans piled into the BGSU Ice Arena to watch the 19th-ranked Falcons host Ohio State, breaking the previous record crowd of 5,031 set against Michigan on Feb. 25, 2012. Despite a 27-24 advantage in shots, BGSU fell 3-2 but rebounded with an identical 3-2 win the next night at Ohio State. Four of the five goals came in the final five minutes of regulation with Bowling Green tying the score at 2-2 with 76 seconds to play before the Buckeyes scored the game-winner with just 34 seconds remaining.
