IUPUI (9-9, 2-5 Summit) comes in amidst a four-game losing skid including a 58-56 heartbreaker to Centenary in front of a sellout crowd in The Jungle on Saturday. Centenary's Maxx Nakwaasah tipped in a Chase Adams miss as time expired to send the Gents to their first-ever win in Indianapolis. 

The Jaguars got double-doubles from junior Billy Pettiford and Robert Glenn, including a career-high 14 boards from Pettiford. Sophomore Leroy Nobles scored a team-high 13 points, marking the first time in his collegiate career he's paced the Jaguars. 

Glenn tied the score at 56 all at the free throw line with 17 seconds left, but Centenary scored the game-winner when Adams' wild runner went well over the rim, finding Nakwaasah unattended on the weak side. 

Oakland (11-9, 4-3) snapped a two-game slide on Saturday by outlasting IPFW, 93-88 in Fort Wayne. Senior guard Erik Kangas pumped in 39 points on his way to Summit League Player of the Week honors.
