The regular season draws to a close this afternoon for the Central men’s and women’s basketball teams, and they’ll host Wartburg for one last doubleheader. The Dutch women picked up their first conference win of the season on Wednesday, edging Loras by four in overtime. It will be a special day for four seniors (Rachel Evans, Kenzie Vander Molen, Bry Pierce, and Lauren Sharp) as they’ll be recognized playing in their final collegiate game of their career. Central’s men have a chance to clinch the number four seed and a home game in the opening contest of the league tournament next week if they can knock off the Knights. Central went on the road to Waverly and beat Wartburg, 67 – 59, back on January 14. A loss by the Dutch would knock them to number five in the standings. Today’s doubleheader is scheduled for a 2:00 p.m. tip-off.
