Wildcats' winning streak hits 8KEVIN CARY
DAVIDSON - For all of Davidson's shiny statistics entering Saturday's 71-64 win against Western Michigan, the Wildcats relied on something a little less glamorous to win their eighth straight.
A gritty defense forced 26 Western Michigan turnovers, including the pivotal play in the final minute, to help Davidson escape.
The Wildcats (12-3) built a 14-point halftime lead, but Western Michigan whittled that down to 66-64 with less than a minute left. The Broncos (4-8) had the ball, but Davidson had an unsung counter attack.
Sophomore Max Paulhus Gosselin only scored five points Saturday, but he was a pest all night. He disrupted passing lanes, tipped passes and helped keep Western Michigan off its rhythm.

Western (4-8), which has the nation's sixth-toughest schedule, fought back from a 14-point deficit to 66-64 with 1 minute, 39 seconds left, but could get no closer and fell to 0-6 in road games.
