Marist is coming into this game winning 3 straight games including a massive win against Monmouth by over 20 points but their last 2 games have been a lot closer in score and they were both at home for them. Now they are going on the road where they are 6-7 this season and 6-9 against conference opponents, going up against a Siena team that is 6-4 at home and 9-4 against conference opponents this season. Siena has been heating up recently as well with 3 straight wins, including a win against Iona in that span. They are coming off of a very close win on the road by 1 point in OT in their last game but they should play a lot better here at home. Siena is a much better team than Marist and they have been playing well recently, they should get the win at home here but Marist has also been playing well so this should be a win for Siena by single digits.

"Absolutely, it was a bit of an adjustment. I mean, I had my years at Northwestern. I had a couple injuries and then coming here, adjusting to that new role and finding where I fit and how I could best help this team was a bit of an adjustment. And then early on, I had that ankle injury, so I was out a couple of days, and then just finding my rhythm again and finding ways to again help this team." - Anthony Gaines after their win against Iona.
