The Cardinals enter this weekend's contests with a 2-7 overall record and a 1-2 league ledger while the Chippewas own a 3-8 overall mark. CMU is looking for their first MAC victory of the season after suffering losses to Longwood (1-2), James Madison (2-3), Appalachian State (3-4) and Bellarmine (3-4).
