The Golden Eagles (12-4 overall, 8-4 West Virginia Conference) have dropped back-to-back home games to Seton Hill and Wheeling Jesuit, a pair of teams hovering around .500 and in the middle of the WVC standings.
Now, UC begins a three-game road trip starting at A-B (11-4, 9-2), which currently sits third in the conference race.
West Virginia State will also be on the road today, but have a little momentum after routing Ohio Valley 90-66 on Thursday.
