Fort Wayne, IN - The IPFW men's basketball team will host Oral Roberts, for the first time in Summit League play, this Thursday at 1:00 p.m.

Because of previously scheduled events at the Memorial Coliseum the game will be an afternoon matinee.

Oral Roberts (8-5, 3-0) currently sits atop the Summit League with an undefeated league mark of 3-0.  They are tied with IUPUI (11-3, 3-0), who is the only other undefeated conference team.

IPFW (5-10, 2-2), began the conference schedule at 2-0 but has lost its last two league contests.

Following the Thursday, 1:00 p.m. tip, IPFW will host two more Summit League contests before hitting the road again.

The Mastodons will host Centenary College (7-8, 1-2) on Saturday at 7:00 p.m. and Oakland (8-7, 3-1) on January 19 at 4:00 p.m.
