Your Marist Red Foxes (-3.5) welcome the underachieving Rider Broncs to McCann in a game has the looks of two teams heading in different directions. The scuffling Foxes have pretty much doused their fans hopeful early season feelings by stringing together four losses including two against league foes.
On the surface this matchup looks to be a run-back of the last game featuring a team that can score but eschews defense and a team that can defend, but can’t score much. Rider’s Preseason MAAC Player of the Year Mervin James is the conference's leading scorer at 20.5 points per game. James is also fourth in the MAAC in rebounding (7.3 rpg) and 10th in the conference in field goal percentage (.534).
Including today, Marist’s three upcoming opponents have a combined record of 13-32. After that stretch comes the dreaded WNY trip. The Foxes should have all the incentive they need to stop squandering winnable home games and snap this losing streak.

Brickner and Price both out. Only 10 guys in uniform. Ruh roh.

Cooley makes those open 3 pointers a month ago. He and Harris are in a monumental shooting slump. Looked like Price either has a cast or heavy wrap on a wrist.

Daughtry playing under control today. Staying on the floor and doing good things for the Foxes.

Very solid half for the Foxes. Keep the defensive pressure on in the second half.

Good first half, but we've seen a number of those against Rider totally vaporize in the past.

+5 on the boards and 78% from the free throw line in the first half. Nice.

I told you all during last game that people just bounce off of Max Allen.
