INDIANAPOLIS (Interstat) — Two Horizon League men’s basketball teams seeking momentum will meet Saturday when the Detroit Titans visit the IU Indy Jaguars at Fairgrounds Coliseum.

Detroit (7-10, 3-3 Horizon) enters following a 71-96 road loss at Northern Kentucky on Thursday. The Titans had won two of their previous three conference games, including a 94-84 victory over Cleveland State on Jan. 11. IU Indy (5-15, 1-5) snapped a six-game losing streak with a 96-93 overtime win against Robert Morris on Thursday.

The Jaguars will lean on guard Kyler D’Augustino, who is averaging 24.6 points over his last seven games. He scored 28 points and dished six assists in the win over Robert Morris and had a 31-point performance against Wright State on Jan. 4.

Detroit counters with guard TJ Nadeau, who has scored in double figures in four of his last six outings. He posted 20 points against Robert Morris on Jan. 2 and added 14 in the loss at Northern Kentucky.

The Titans won the season’s first meeting, 92-78, at home on Dec. 3. In that game, Detroit limited IU Indy to 39.7% shooting from the field while forcing 14 turnovers.

Both teams have struggled defensively this season. Detroit allows 78.2 points per game, while IU Indy surrenders a league-worst 84.6 points per contest. The Jaguars’ offense, powered by D’Augustino, averages 75.7 points.

Saturday’s game is a key opportunity for each squad to build conference standing ahead of the league tournament. Following this matchup, Detroit hosts Purdue Fort Wayne on Jan. 21, while IU Indy travels to face Oakland on the same date.

Tipoff is scheduled for 2 p.m. EST at Fairgrounds Coliseum in Indianapolis.
