NORFOLK, Virginia - This is Norfolk State's finest Division I season. It was not its finest first half. A dismal opening 20 minutes for Norfolk State sentenced the Spartans to their first MEAC loss of the season, an 87-82 defeat to visiting Coppin State (11-11, 6-3) that kept NSU (16-7, 8-1) from breaking its school-record for Division I wins in a season.
Even so, Norfolk State remained in first place in the MEAC by 1-1/2 games over Bethune-Cookman and Savannah State, and it has eight more chances to set a school record.
"It doesn't take away any of our wins, it doesn't take away our lead," senior center Kyle O'Quinn said. "Almost no one makes it through undefeated. You build a lead in case this happens. This is why you play so hard early."
