Huge game. Hate to call this a must win, but if we can find a way to win in Albany I think we still have a reasonable chance of finishing in the top two spots. If we lose I think it’s a race for 4th to 7th place.
Go Gaels!!!

Gonna be very difficult to win this game without Van Eyck. EJ is going to have to dominate, plus I think Jelly against Pickett will be a crucial matchup.

Siena is 12-0 at home, and won their last 5 home games by double digits. Hope Van Eyck's MRI comes back clean, but can't see him playing Wednesday night. Going to need Thiam to play his best game of the year and defend and rebound. If Van Eyck is out will be interesting to see who Arnold starts in his place. Would have to think Risto

Have to play bigger. And our improved defense will have its biggest test as Siena has the best offense in the league. Need to defend and rebound well to have a chance.

If Mr. Agee plays smart with fouls it's a win....

Best guess is 4-2 rest of the way with a strong shot at 5-1. It would take a monumental effort to go 6-0. Not going to bet against this team with the way they’ve been playing lately.

Obviously a very big game,they are playing well and being 12-0 at home should be a tough crowd,need IW,EJ,and TA to stay on court and do what they have been doing,without Dylan either Dre,Mo,or Ben need to contribute,hoping Ross has his shot going as well,hope the refs are somewhat fair,this could be another obstacle.

Is Dylan definitely out for Wednesday or is that just your best guess?

FWIW, heard Van Eyck is still in lots of pain and as of today not even expected to play this Friday night against Rider. Hope that's not the case.

Thought at first it was his knee. His leg awkwardly got stuck under him. Hope he is ok and back soon.

Tough blow to the team at a crucial time. He was playing great. Was part of the 19-2 start to the second half. Played great at Quinny and against Manhattan. Guys will step up.

If nothing else, I think this recent run has shown that we have just as good talent as anyone in the MAAC. Admittedly it’s nowhere near the level I expected us to be, but it’s still every bit as good as any MAAC team.
