The Huskies were limited to a 29.6% shooting percentage during the game as no Tech player reached double digits in points, Owen White being the closest at a team-high nine points. The team had several issues they hope to fix when St. Cloud State visits on November 28.[20][21]
St. Cloud State
[edit]The Huskies hoped to rebound a day after their 34-point loss to Minnesota Duluth,[22] and were able to do so against St. Cloud State, winning 90-76, despite being down 46-39 at the half, with Trent Bell's double-double, his first of the season.

Early conference games
[edit]Northwood
[edit]In hopes to continue their win streak, Michigan Tech visited Northwood to try and get a win; the Huskies did just that and more. After the game was tied at 15-all early in the first half, the Huskies found their way to a 16-point, 51-35 lead at the half. En route to extending their win streak, and starting conference play on a good note, Owen White led the Huskies with 22 points, 7 rebounds, 8 assists, and 2 steals. Tech went 54.5% from beyond the arc and 39-65 (60%) overall, besting Northwood in every category, except for Free Throw Percentage (66%-78%) and blocks, both teams blocking one goal.[24]
Northern Michigan
[edit]During rivalry games, the away team always want to try to keep the game close, and that's what Northern Michigan were able to do during the second half of this game's matchup. Tech shot 49.1% from the field, with three players in double-digits, in a game that they one by one point. After leading 36-29 at the half, the Huskies were outscored 47-41 in the second half to narrowly beat the Wildcats 77-76, thanks to a made free throw made between a pair of Wildcat three-pointers in the last couple seconds of the game. Adam Hobson led all players with a career-high 22 points, along with 4 rebounds and a block.[25]
Lake Superior State
[edit]In game two of seven during the Huskies homestead, the Huskies were able to hold off a late Lake Superior State push, with their lead getting as low as 65–61 with 39 seconds remaining in the game. During his performance, Trent Bell recorded yet another Double-Double with 14 points, 10 rebounds, 7 assists, and a block, leading the team in rebounds and assists, tying Owen White in leading the team in points, and being 1 of 4 players to get a block. Michigan Tech shot 47.4% from the field, going 6-24 from beyond the arc, and shooting 10-13 from the free throw line. Of these three shooting percentages, Lake Superior State only lead in one and that was when they went 7-of-24 from three. This win extends their win streak to four in time for the Huskies to host Ferris State on December 11.[26]
#20 Ferris State
[edit]With Michigan Tech down 21-38 at the half and struggling with shooting throughout the game, #20 Ferris State routed the Huskies 71-48. Ferris State outperformed the Huskies in every category except assists, where both teams had 13, steals (MTU had 7 vs 3), and personal fouls. Despite this performance, Michigan Tech still has a chance to perform well in the GLIAC and in their remaining non-conference games.[27]
Remaining non-conference games
