Your #3 Marist Red Foxes look to build upon an already surprisingly good season when they take on the #6 seeded Niagara Purple Eagles for a spot in the semifinal round of the 2024 MAAC Men’s Basketball Tournament. This contest is the rubber match after both teams won previously on their home court. Niagara enters tonight’s game off a surprisingly close win over the cellar dwelling Siena Saints. The Purps should be primed to avenge their exciting season ending loss to the Foxes. Niagara features numerous player who can go off from deep so a lock down defensive performance as well as staying out of foul trouble in the post seem mandatory for a win. Conversely, getting Obioha off the floor would be huge.
Go Red Foxes!!!

I love this matchup. Let's go foxes. Allen will play better and I doubt Niagara shoots like 70 percent from 3 in first or 2nd half.

Fairfield and Q got off to some slow starts yesterday, hoping that doesn't carryover to the Foxes.
In the Siena game it looked like Niagara played tight...I imagine being the underdog here they'll loosen up, don't want to give them confidence early

It's going to be a tough, close game. Good defense and big games from Allen and Pascarelli and we can take it! Let's Go!!!

Energy is just not there.
Need a spark here ASAP.

Brickner's ball handling has been rough these last few games

Niagara taking away the 3pt looks from the shooters. Average 20 per game, only 3 attempts so far and Allen and Collins have 2 of them

Ball handlers are being abused. Refs have to call something
