It has been a very difficult year for the UIC Flames in MVC play thus far. With a record of just 2-12 in league play, the Flames have already been reduced to playing a spoiler role for the rest of the regular season. On Saturday, the Flames halted a ten-game losing streak with a 70-61 win over Evansville. Steven Clay was one of three Flames to score in double figures and led the way with 17 points.
