NJIT Highlanders 80 Cleveland State 77

I think it was in 2006 that NJIT sports moved into Division I.  There was some controversy on campus if this was the right move.  A good basketball or football team will attract good students to the school and get it recognition.  The team started out very poorly in Division I play, but since Jim Engles became Head Coach there has been great improvement. The big event this season was the upset victory over nationally ranked Michigan. The Highlanders did not make the NCAA or NIT tournaments but have now won two games in the College Insider Post Season Tournament. 

I certainly congratulate Coach Engles and Athletic Director Lenny Kaplan on the team's accomplishments and wish them all the best in the future.
