Western Michigan trailed all the way last night in losing 71-to-66 at Duquesne. Shayne Whittington had 20 points and 10 rebounds for the Broncos, who fall to 7-and-4.

Tonight’s schedule includes 2nd-ranked Michigan at home against Eastern Michigan. The Wolverines look to be in good shape to open with 12 straight wins for the first time since the 1985-1986 team that started out 16-and-0.
