Just to torture us and given that today’s opponent is Siena I thought this highlight courtesy of the wayback machine is appropriate……
BRIDGEPORT, CONN. - Today, Erica Allenspach showed why she was named the MAAC Player of the Year. The Marist senior guard tied a career-high with 34 points and hit backbreaking shots right and left as the Red Foxes ended Siena's season 60-45 in the semifinal round of the 2011 Spark Energy MAAC Championships at Webster Bank Arena…. Marist, which entered the day ranked 18th in the ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll and 21st in the AP Top-25 Poll, improved to 29-2 in extending the nation's longest active winning streak to 25 games and will play No. 2 seed Loyola on Monday at 1 p.m. for the MAAC Championship…..
Those two losses were to #14 St. John’s to open the season in a tournament hosted by Kansas St. and at home to St. Bonaventure. Their third loss was to Duke @ Duke in the unfortunate Allenspach’s Ankle Game.

Won't be around for this game but here's a few advance predictions:
25 point loss
27 turnovers
Leading scorer goes 5-19 from the floor
No other Marist player makes more than 3 field goals
Let's see how I do.

Sounds about right. What intrigues me is will they run their consecutive game losing streak to 15, or end it at 11 against St. Peter’s at home? How many years of hot mess basketball constitutes rock bottom?

1-8 shooting and 0-2 from FT - it is crazy how no one can shoot on this team

Honesty there is no one to even start to rebuild the program around.

Fisher is not with the team for an undisclosed reason according to the Siena play by play guy.

Staff needs to pretend that they have Zero starters coming back and go from there.
Right now I got at least 1 Freshman starting… need 2 really good transfers…. And hopefully some more leave opening even more scholarships

And hopefully some more leave opening even more scholarships Lee will start. Cunningham will start. Piddock will start. Need to bring in a 4 and 1 plus the 2 freshman.

great pass by Piddock - and a horrible finish by Tarul
* My point was staff needs to recruit over EVERYONE on this roster

Well we have held Siena without a FG for last 4 min and in that time we have gone on a 2-0 run
