The Central Men’s Basketball team will renew a local college basketball rivalry tonight as they travel to Indianola to take on Simpson. 

The Dutch have struggled against the Storm in recent years, dropping four of the last six games including a 80-61 defeat in last year’s matchup. Central is also still looking for their first win in American Rivers Conference play, and Head Coach Craig Douma says that his squad needs to be better on offense in order for that to happen.

“We’ve got to score the ball. The biggest problem this whole season so far is we can’t score, and if you can’t score, you’re not going to win. Defensively, overall, we’re good enough. We’ve been defending pretty well all year, but if you don’t score, you’re not going to win ball games and your defense is going to break down if you’re not scoring and that’s kind of where we’re at right now. We’ve got to score.”

Tonight’s Central Men’s Basketball game at Simpson can be heard live on both 94.3 KNIA and the KRLS2 stream at KNIAKRLS.com, Pregame coverage begins at 7:15 pm, with the opening tipoff at 7:30 pm.
