Todd Clark scored 26 points Thursday as the Norse won their 24th consecutive home game.

        Clark (Holy Cross) made 10 of his 11 shots from the field and had seven rebounds. Brenden Stowers (Simon Kenton) added 15 points for NKU (15-2, 6-2 GLVC), ranked No.7 in NCAA Division II.

        “That might have been Todd Clark's best performance as a member of our program,” NKU coach Ken Shields said. “He was just outstanding on the offensive end, and our entire team played an excellent game.”

        NKU built a 50-25 halftime lead as Clark made all five of his shots from the field and scored 13 points.

        NKU will play host to No.3 Kentucky Wesleyan at 3:15p.m. Saturday in Regents Hall. Kentucky Wesleyan is the three-time defending champion of the GLVC and has beaten NKU five consecutive times.
