Dylan Arnett and Je'Shawn Stevenson also contributed to the scoring. Defensively, the Vikings have been strong, allowing an average of 65.3 points per game, but gave up 85 points in their last matchup.

In terms of offensive statistics, the Vikings have decent shooting percentages and assist numbers, but could improve their rebounding. On defense, they have been solid in limiting field goal percentage but should work on defending against three-point shots.

Cleveland State Holds Competitive Advantage Over Panthers in Upcoming Game

Cleveland State has a competitive advantage over the Panthers in their upcoming game based on several key statistical factors. The Vikings have demonstrated their strong performance at home with 11 wins out of 13 games, while the Panthers have struggled with a split record in their last six road games.

With a strong offensive rebounding game and limited turnovers, Cleveland State is poised to capitalize on scoring opportunities.
