Just three days after completing a sweep of two of the MAAC’s top teams in Iona and Manhattan, the Quinnipiac Bobcats (4-2) fell to the St. Peter’s Peacocks (2-4) 74-67 at the Yanitelli Center in Jersey City, NJ.

Manhattan 86, Marist 79 (OT)
For 45 minutes the script didn’t change. Mike Alvarado got the ball and he attacked the basket. As aggressively as possible. And eventually that, along with a little help from a fearless freshman, was enough for Manhattan to pull out an 86-79 overtime victory over Marist on Sunday afternoon at Draddy Gymnasium.

Siena’s Patsos Set to Reset Marist Rivalry
This may be a matchup of two first year head coaches in a rivalry game, but Siena head coach Jimmy Patsos has experienced that Marist can be a tough matchup.
Patsos, whose career record against Marist is 11-7 and just 3-6 at McCann Arena, will not have to worry about traveling to Poughkeepsie until February. However, he will have to deal with a Red Foxes team at the Times Union Center that has won five games in a row for the first time since the 2007-08 season.

Rider’s Baggett Looking to Snap Broncs out of Funk
For a team that is 7-6 to start the season and 3-1 in conference play, Rider head coach Kevin Baggett feels that his team has not returned to form once they came back from holiday break.
The Broncs have won two out of three games since the holiday break by a combined total of three points before falling to Siena on the road Saturday by 15.
