The Grand Valley State Men’s and Women’s Basketball teams returned home to Allendale for the first time in February this past weekend as both looked to right their respective ships following tough losses in Detroit to Wayne State the previous Saturday afternoon.
The GVSU Men and Women hosted the Roosevelt Lakers (Thursday night) and Wisconsin-Parkside Rangers (Saturday afternoon) inside the GVSU Fieldhouse Arena and came out with a couple of GLIAC doubleheader sweeps to get back to their winning ways before heading back on the road for three straight beginning this weekend.
Here’s how the recent weekend unfolded:
