St. Francis BK lost their first eight games of the year, then hit a three-game win streak in December. The Terriers haven’t been able to win consecutive games since then, however. After losses to Sacred Heart and LIU, St. Francis BK beat Central CT in their last game. 

Matched up against Central CT State on Saturday, the Terriers jumped out to a 39-20 edge. St. Francis BK was outscored by two points from there but hung on for the 67-50 victory. Larry Moreno led the team on his 23 points and five boards. 

Over on the Mount St. Mary’s side, they hit a rough 5-10 run over their first 15 games this year but things have been better since then. The Mountaineers are 7-2 in their last nine. After losses to Bryant and Wagner, Mount St. Mary’s beat St. Francis PA in their last matchup. 

In the Red Flash game, Mount St. Mary’s was drilled 19-27 in the first half. The Mountaineers recovered on a 35-25 run from there in a 54-52 comeback win. Mezie Offurum led the team on his 14 points and two rebounds. 

The Mountaineers are 5-1 ATS in their last six at home and 8-3 ATS in their last 11 overall. The under is 4-1 in Mount St. Mary’s last five Thursday games. 

Meanwhile, the Terriers are 5-1 ATS in the last six road games and 7-0 ATS in their last seven Thursday games. The under is 4-0 in St. Francis BK’s last four overall. 

PICK: I’m going to go with Mount St. Mary’s, but probably not touching this one. The Mountaineers have hit some nice points totals during this 7-2 stretch, but they haven’t hit more than 62 points in any of the last four games. As for the Terriers, they’ve been at 67 points or above in seven of the last eight outings. St. Francis BK lost 69-61 the last time these teams met up back on January 8 though, and I’d imagine the result here will be similar.
