TERRE HAUTE, Ind. -- Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology returns to men's basketball action with a trip to the Illinois Wesleyan Invitational on Saturday and Sunday.

Rose-Hulman opened the 2015-16 season with an 85-78 victory at Millikin University last Saturday.  Stephen Schueth scored a team-high 20 points, Collin Wojcik scored 18 and Luke Callahan added 16 points to lead a balanced scoring attack.
