The teams appeared to be going to overtime Monday night, but UNI's last-second, game-tying shot was waved off after video review.

The Panthers were scheduled to host the Bears in Cedar Falls Friday and Saturday.

The Panthers won their first conference game Monday night, after a 20-point loss to the Bears Sunday afternoon.

Playing without leading scorer AJ Green and Antwon Kimmons, the Panthers recorded the first win of the season Friday night.

After a rough start to the season, the Panthers play their first game at the McLeod Center Friday night.

The excitement for the upcoming season has officially reached a fevered pitch.

The UNI men's basketball team is expected to defend the Missouri Valley Conference regular season championship the Panthers won last season.

It will be the tournament's third trip to Iowa in recent years.

The men's and women's teams are both slated to play a full 18-game schedule, starting in late December.

Games won't be played before the year ends, due to the ongoing impact of COVID-19.
