The Eastern Michigan University men's basketball team turned in a record-breaking defensive performance, defeating the Northern Illinois Huskies, 42-25, Saturday afternoon, Jan. 26, in the Convocation Center. For the Eagles (10-10; 3-3 MAC), the game stood as the first time since Dec. 7, 2004 that the team held an opponent to less than 30 points. That feat occurred against Rochester College, 89-29. The 25 points given up were also the lowest points EMU has allowed since Jan. 21, 1943, when Eastern defeated Hillsdale College, 61-21.
