The Grand Valley State Men’s and Women’s Basketball teams wrapped up January this past weekend back at home against a pair of U.P. teams in the Northern Michigan Wildcats and Michigan Tech Huskies to begin the second half of GLIAC play.
The weekend featured three of the four contests being nationally ranked matchups, and once again, it would be the Laker Men and Women coming out on top to complete another GLIAC doubleheader sweep while continuing to stack up more wins to their respective records.
Here’s how the final weekend of January unfolded:

More individual conference accolades continue to pour in, and this week, the GLIAC decided to honor someone on the men’s team for their work on the defensive end of the floor:
