Scouting UNOH – 13-5 (9-3 WHAC) – Head coach Chris Adams (7th Year – 90-111 overall)
Head coach Chris Adams is in his seventh season at the helm of the UNOH program and has seen steady improvement since joining the WHAC before the 2010-11 season. After going just 4-12 that season, the Racers are now in a position for their best finish in program history. The Racers have been paced all season by the guard-tandem of Johnny Elliott and Ed Jenkins who are combining to average over 36 points per game. As a team, UNOH is very good on the offensive side of the ball as they average 79.7 points per game with returning 1st Team All-WHAC performer Derrick Tate also averaging in double-figures.
 
Last Meeting vs. UNOH
Davenport suffered just its 11th loss ever in the Student Center back on November 26 when they fell 81-83 to the Racers. The visitors from Lima, Ohio connected on 10-15 shots from behind the arc while Johnny Elliott and Ed Jenkins combined for 47 points in the 2-point win for the Racers.

Davenport has averaged 78.5 points per game in the seven game series.
