After all 14 teams opened GLVC play last week, 12 are back to non-conference play this week with 17 games on the docket. Rockhurst and Missouri S&T are the only two idle, as the Hawks next contest is set for Dec. 10 and the Miners don't play again until the 18th. Illinois Springfield, however, kicks off the week at Division I SEMO in the morning, while Drury is also on the road and Quincy, William Jewell, Lewis and Southern Indiana each host Tuesday evening. On Wednesday, Truman State and McKendree both welcome non-league foes, and Missouri-St. Louis will do the same on Friday. Saturday sees seven more matchups with Jewell, Lewis, Maryville and UIS hosting and streaming on GLVCSN and Indianapolis, McKendree and Bellarmine on the road. The Knights will face D-I Western Kentucky, while UMSL will close out the week on Sunday at another D-I foe in UMKC.
