INDIANAPOLIS - Butler has cooled off a bit, in large part because Cleveland State has significantly upped its aggression and intensity on defense. The Bulldogs have forced a few off-balance shots that aren't falling, and the Vkings have scrapped for a few stickbacks to clip the deficit back into single digits. Butler leads 25-16 with just under eight minutes to play in the first half. Coach Gary Waters would likely be pleased if the Vikings can get this down to five by halftime.
