UPCOMING ACTION
Thursday, January 25
*New Hampshire at UMBC, 7 p.m.
After scoring just 29 points in a 24-point loss to Boston University, the Wildcats are surging of late, winning three straight, including two league contests... UMBC got off to a strong 2-0 start to conference play, but since the Retrievers have won just one of their last five league outings... The Wildcats swept the regular-season series versus UMBC a season ago.
*Vermont at Hartford, 7 p.m.
The Hawks look to snap a three-game skid as they host the first-place Catamounts... Vermont has won eight of its last nine contests... The battle on the boards could play a big factor as UVM ranks first in the league in rebounding margin (+8.5) and the Hawks are eighth (-3.7)... The two split their regular-season series a season ago with both teams winning on the road... Vermont’s Joe Trapani, one of the conference’s top rookies, has a broken bone in his left foot and is expected to miss approximately four weeks.
*Maine at Stony Brook, 7 p.m.
The recently streaking Black Bears look to make it four in a row as they head to Long Island to face the Seawolves... Stony Brook has dropped three of its last four league outings and is coming off a loss to New Hampshire... Maine’s Kevin Reed has been the catalyst of the Black Bears success of late as he is averaging 18.3 ppg and 7.0 rpg over the last three contests... Maine swept both meetings versus the Seawolves last season.
