The Fort Lewis College men's basketball team extended their winning streak to nine games after posting two home wins this past weekend against Western State Colorado University (W, 88-61) and Colorado State-Pueblo (W, 99-85).
 
With Friday's win over the Mountaineers, the Skyhawks were the first team to clinch a spot in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference championship tournament.  The Skyhawks need one more win to secure the No. 1 seed in the tournament and at least a share of the regular season title.
 
The Skyhawks' 21-3 record is their best start in school history.  FLC's 13-0 home record is the second time they have started their season 13-0 (2004-05, 1977-78).  Fort Lewis' best home record is 16-0 (1977-78).
 
The Skyhawks are ranked No. 9 in this week's NABC Division II poll, their highest ranking of the season. The highest ranking in program history is No. 5 (2004-05).  This is the first time in school history the Skyhawks have been ranked in the top 10 in consecutive weeks.
 
FLC will play their final regular season road trip this weekend in New Mexico.  The Skyhawks will play at New Mexico Highlands on Friday and at Western New Mexico on Saturday.
 
The Cowboys are currently third in the Mountain Division standings and sixth overall.  The Mustangs are eighth in the Mountain Division and 16th overall.
 
NMHU leads the league in blocks (104, 4.0 per game), and free throws attempted (645) and made (487).
 
Western New Mexico forces a league high 14.42 turnovers per game.
