Western Kentucky dug deep again Saturday, forcing overtime on the road at UTSA before pulling out a 77-73 victory. With their fourth straight win, the Hilltoppers (18-8 overall, 11-3 Conference USA) will be the No. 2 seed going into Conference USA’s upcoming Bonus Play. The Hilltoppers now await their schedule for Bonus Play, C-USA’s scheduling model for the final four games of the regular season. Those games, which will include two home games and two road games, will be announced Sunday afternoon.
WKU does know it will host No. 3 seed Louisiana Tech and No. 4 seed Charlotte, and travel to top-seeded North Texas and No. 5 seed FIU. Dates, times and locations are to be determined.
