Fresh off its biggest win of the season over Ohio Valley Conference leader Morehead State on Thursday night, the Arkansas-Little Rock men take on Southern Indiana today at the Jack Stephens Center in Little Rock.

With the emotional 69-68 victory over Morehead State behind them, UALR (15-11, 9-4 Ohio Valley) will have to turn the page quickly as the Screaming Eagles arrive after suffering a 77-68 loss at Tennessee-Martin on Thursday.

"That's what worries me," UALR Coach Darrell Walker said of the possibility of his team overlooking Southern Indiana coming off the Morehead State win. "It's almost like a trap game. I'll be here watching film on Southern Indiana to get ready for [today]. At the end of the day, we have to protect home.
