Eastern Michigan Game Notes:

- Game Preview: The Bulls conclude play against the MAC West Saturday afternoon as they face Eastern Michigan at the Convocation Center.  It is a pivotal contest for both teams that sit within one game of each other in the MAC Standings.  The Bulls are coming off a loss at Central Michigan, while EMU defeated Ohio last Saturday.

- Thornton Hits New Highs: Redshirt junior Cherridy Thornton had the best game of her brief Buffalo career on Sunday at Central Michigan, scoring 22 points against the Chippewas.  Playing in her home state for the first time in a UB uniform, Thornton went 6-for-7 from the free throw line and also had two assists and three steals.  Thornton currently leads the Bulls in scoring at 11.8 points per game.

- On The Road Again: After a brief six-day homestand where the Bulls were able to rest up and get some practice it, they head back to the road for their second straight game in Michigan.  Buffalo is right in the middle of its six of eight games on the road in the month of February.  UB has already head to Miami, Akron and Central Michigan with trips still planned for Ohio and Bowling Green following today's game.
