Jan. 10—Once a humbling 67-57 homecourt loss Dec. 22 to the previously struggling Northern Illinois Huskies had ended, only one statistic truly lingered in Indiana State men's basketball coach Josh Schertz's thoughts.It wasn't his Sycamores' shooting percentage, just 35% from the field.It wasn't career-highs of 32 points and nine rebounds by Northern Illinois guard Keshawn Williams. Instead, it was a seemingly obscure ratio, 0.789 — his Sycamores' points per possession that night. That figure summarized all of the other statistics that factored into the outcome, including ISU's 14 turnovers.
