CHARLOTTE AMALIE, ST. THOMAS, VI. – The Eastern Kentucky University men's basketball team will wrap up play in the U.S. Virgin Islands Paradise Jam on Monday with a 1:00 p.m. ET game against Kennesaw State.

EKU (2-3) trailed Northern Iowa by 16 with four minutes to play on Saturday; however, the Colonels used a 17-2 run over the next three minutes to pull to within one. UNI eventually held on for a 90-85 victory.

Senior Nick Mayo led five Colonels in double figures on Saturday with 27 points and six rebounds.

This is the third all-time meeting between EKU and Kennesaw State. The Colonels have won the previous two meetings (2012 and 2013).

EKU will have Thanksgiving week off before traveling to Knoxville to face Tennessee next Wednesday, Nov. 28, at 6:30 p.m. ET.
