The Racers are 2-0 in the early going of the MVC race

The Murray State Racers carry a six-game win streak into Monday's game at home against the Southern Illinois Salukis.

The 6 p.m. tip is a Missouri Valley Conference feature game as the two long time rivals continue their series that has already produced six league games since the Racers joined The Valley in 2022.

The Salukis won the first four meetings with the Racers scoring a pair of wins in the 2024-25 season.

Murray State is 2-0 in the MVC with a home win last week over Drake and a road win at Valparaiso, as the Racers have matched their best start to an MVC season, which they also went 2-0 in their first season of 2022-23.

The Racers 6-game streak is tied for the best currently in the MVC with Bradley, while Belmont has won it's last four games.
