What to Know

The Hofstra Pride typically have all the answers at home, but on Wednesday the Tribe proved too difficult a challenge. William & Mary escaped with a win by the margin of a single free throw, 63-62.
Meanwhile, Northeastern’s 2021 ended with a 79-62 loss against the Elon Phoenix on Wednesday. The top scorers for Northeastern were guard Jahmyl Telfort (16 points) and guard Tyreek Scott-Grayson (15 points).
William & Mary is now 2-12 while the Huskies sit at 6-6. Two stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Tribe are 356th worst in college basketball in turnovers per game, with 17.8 on average. Northeastern has experienced some struggles of their own as they are stumbling into the contest with the 349th fewest takeaways in college basketball, having accrued only 10.1 on average. It’s possible one of these Achilles’ heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
