FIVE THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW

1. The Hardrockers have now lost 4-in-as-row, but three have been competitive contests against good teams.
2. As it has been all season, the Hardrockers shoot the ball well from three-point range, hitting 36.4% (5th RMAC) and 8.9 per game (2nd RMAC).
3. Turnovers were a problem for much of the year, but over the last 9 games, they are turning it over just 12.7 times per game, a number that would be good for 4th in the league over the season.
4. South Dakota Mines strength has been on the defensive end, allowing 72.2 points per game (6th RMAC) on 44.2% percent shooting (6th RMAC).
5. South Dakota Mines currently sits in 12th in the RMAC, but hopes to move into a playoff spot in the final 6 games.
