WHAT TO WATCH FOR
PEACOCK WOES: This season has been a rough one for Saint Peter’s. The team went through the longest losing streak in program history, losing 17 straight from early December to mid-February. The Peacocks currently sit at ninth place in the MAAC. Nonetheless, they enter tomorrow’s game coming off a come-from-behind win against Iona.
MAKING A STATEMENT: The Stags have lost three of their last four MAAC contests. However, they are still in contention for an upper-level seeding in the Tournament. Look for Fairfield to bounce back from its Monday-night loss to Marist and finish its regular season with authority.
