Two things: 1. Steve Masiello got his contract extended, just in time. Since his new deal, the Jaspers have lost four or five in a row. 2. The too young SPU team will now have to lose out in order to finish with eight losses. With the parity in the MAAC it could happen. But I doubt it. Edert, a frosh, had 28 to lead the Peacocks.

Quincy and Siena both true buzzer beaters. Siena a lucky bounce on a forced shot by Pickett. Quincy seemed to benefit from slow clock. They were on road so probably not. Just felt that way
83, I was watching the game and felt the same way about the clock. However, on the replay, I just counted (1001, 1002, etc.) and Rigoni, by my count got the shot off in three seconds, with 3.8 being on the clock when they inbounded the ball. The Joy of Victory, and the Agony of Defeat.
Watched a little of the Rider game, and heard the announcers say that Rider and Siena have the most talent in the MAAC. Not an outlandish statement, but think our "Big Four" are better than any other four guys. And then throw in our Glue Guy, and I like our team. I know I'm not very objective.
