Elijah Weaver had a strong game finishing with 26 points, nine rebounds, and three assists. Chicago State is averaging 66.8 points while their defense is giving up 73.9 points per game. The offense is ranked 311th overall, and they need the offense to be good here.

In the last game against South Alabama, the offense scored 85 points and secured the four point victory.
