The Redbird men's basketball team will try to win its fifth in a row on Sunday when Illinois State hosts Missouri Valley Conference leader Wichita State.

ISU beat then-No. 16 Creighton last weekend and followed that win up with a victory over archrival Bradley on Wednesday night at Redbird Arena.

WJBC's Dick Luedke and Mike Matthews have the call with Redbird Preview starting at 6 p.m. on WJBC AM 1230 and WJBC.com.

In other college basketball action on Sunday, the University of Illinois travels to Evanston to face Northwestern. Pregame coverage starts at 6 p.m. on WJBC FM 93.7.

The Redbird baseball team wraps up a season-opening series at Memphis on Sunday. First pitch is scheduled for 1 p.m. The ISU softball team closes out the ASU Littlewood Classic at 9 a.m. against UIC.
