Who’s Playing
Rider @ Canisius
Current Records: Rider 5-11; Canisius 5-12
What to Know
The Canisius Golden Griffins will be returning home after a three-game road trip. Canisius and the Rider Broncs will face off in an MAAC battle at 7 p.m. ET on Friday at Koessler Athletic Center. Given that these two teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.
The Golden Griffins came up short against the St. Peter’s Peacocks on Tuesday, falling 65-57.
Meanwhile, Rider was within striking distance but couldn’t close the gap on Wednesday as they fell 73-67 to the Quinnipiac Bobcats.
Canisius was close but no cigar when the two teams previously met in March of last year as they fell 78-76 to Rider. The loss knocked Canisius out of the playoffs, so expect them to come at the Broncs with a vengeful fire.
