ANDREW’S FREE PICK 

I’ll probably stay with the Redhawks. Southeast Missouri State is looking pretty good in this current 6-1 run. The Redhawks have hit 74 or more points in all six of the victories and they should post a decent total in this one. SEMO managed a 74-68 win back on January 7 at Jack Stephens Center the last time these teams met up; being back at Show Me Center should give an extra bit of pep to the Redhawks’ attack. I think Southeast Missouri State will do well in this one and keep their run going.
