Southern Illinois Meets Murray State

One-on-One With Scott Nagy

(St. Louis, MO) – When Southern Illinois meets Murray State Wednesday night, there will be two teams looking for some momentum heading into the final two weeks of the season. SIU (12-15) and Murray (13-14) are two of five Missouri Valley Conference teams tied at 7-9.

Those five are tied for sixth place, one game behind fifth place Illinois Chicago.

Game time is set for 6 pm. This game was originally scheduled to be played in Murray, Kentucky, but storms and electricity outages in the area have moved the game to Carbondale.

We spoke with coach Scott Nagy before that announcement.

Murray’s Sunday game with Northern Iowa had to be moved to Belmont. UNI won the contest. The Racers are losing the opportunity at two home games due to this massive storm.

Coach Nagy is in his first year at the helm of the Saluki program. Here is our conversation about when Southern Illinois meets Murray State. The Racers won the first meeting between the two.

 

Coach Nagy has won 346 Division 1 games, winning exactly 167 games at both South Dakota State AND Wright State.

November 13 @SIUEMBB will be playing at Duke. @baronecoach talks about the excitement level he and his Cougars have in playing at Cameron Indoor.

Watched this guy carry ten times for 70 yards and two TDs for @FoxHSActivities in a win over Mehlville. Ryan Joggerst is getting looks at linebacker at the next level, but he was great last carrying the ball. Are my friends at @hssportscaravan noticing? #FatherHarry
