The men's basketball team looks to get back to its winning ways when it battles Edgewood College at home on Sunday, December 13.

Home, of course, is a relative term for the Eagles this year as the Rice Center renovations have forced Benedictine to find satellite locations to play its home games. This weekend, Elmhurst College will play host to the Eagles and Edgewood at 4:15 p.m.

A win Sunday will put Benedictine above .500 in both overall record (3-3 currently) as well as Northern Athletics Conference action (1-1).

The Eagles will have to contend with a very balanced Edgewood (3-4, 2-1 in NAC) team. Guard Ben Wisniewski, Edgewood's leading scorer at 13.3 points per game, is hitting 41 percent of his three-pointers, while Jeff Barczak is averaging 12.1 and 5.4 rebounds per game.

The key Sunday may be 6-foot-7 Edgewood center Tony Cates, whose 17 offensive rebounds leads the team. Cates, whose work on the glass keeps the Eagles in every possession, redshirted at Division I University of Pacific last season.

Benedictine will be leaning on leading scorers Cameron Snelling and Terry Licht, while also looking to sophomore Bradley Bruno, who had a breakout game last Saturday at Lakeland (5 points, 8 rebounds).
