Colgate (13-6) at Wagner (5-14)
I was worried coming into this game, since it was on the road, and I had a right to be worried. We drop this one 66-65, which is inexcusable, really. Eliason scored 20 for us and Le and Moore scored in double figures, but our leaders, McNeil and Barnett struggled, which cost us the game.

Talk about a huge win. We take down the league leader on their home court by a final score of 68-51. Melton, Le and McNeil all scored in double figured, led by Melton off the bench with 13. Barnett only scored 6, but did hand out 8 assists.

Colgate (14-7) at Yale (8-12)
We drop another game on the road. These road losses to losing teams will cost us a chance at post seaosn play. Final score was 71-66. Eliason had 18 and Barnett had 13, but everyone else was pretty quiet.

Our win at Northeastern proves to be really big, as it keeps us just 1 game out in the loss column. If we didn’t drop road games to Yale and Navy (who are actually having success in league play), we could be on top.
