Colgate (7-2) at Grambling (4-7)
We start off the new year on the road against a pretty poor team, but we struggled on the road and dropped this one by three points. Their PF went off for 35 points on us. Painful. Our points were spread out nicely among our starting five, but unfortunately, we just did not score enough.

Southern (5-7) at Colgate (7-3)
We get back to the cozy confines of our home court and try to get back into a winning streak. We come out flat however, and never recover, falling by 9 at home, 62-53. We have now dropped 3 straight. Dombroski and Barnett scored a dozen each to lead the way, but Barnett has been quiet as of late, and I would like to see some 15+ point games out of him now.

Navy (4-8) at Colgate (7-4)
We open up conference play at home, and really need to get off to a good start. Navy ruins our opener though, and puts us in a 0-1 hole to start things out by beating us 56-52. Dombroski came ready to play, as he scored 25 points, but our offense is really in a slump overall. Hobbs did his job with 12 boards though.

Colgate (7-5) at Cornell (9-5)
Cornell is looking solid this year, and this is a in state rivalry for bragging rights. We are able to snap our losing streak and once again beat these guys, which is always a nice notch in the belt. Final score was 69-62. Four of our starters scored in double figures, led by Tory Davis with 17.
