The Concordia University Chicago men's basketball team (4-11) isn't done yet in 2021! Following a strong end to the regular season with four wins in their final six games and a narrow loss to top-seeded Rockford in the Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference tournament, the Cougars will play two final games to complete their season.
Â
The first sees them return to Geiseman Gymnasium a final time to face the North Central College Cardinals (5-5). This will be the first ever meeting in men's basketball between the two schools. The lack of a full season was a particular let down for the Cardinals, who in 2020 advanced to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA DIII Tournament before the spring championships were canceled.
Â
Thursday represents an opportunity for the rest of the team to get a jump on preparation for next season just 7 months away.
Â
Tipoff is at 8 p.m. with an abbreviated JV game to follow. Fans can stream both games at
