Colgate (3-7) at Siena (5-7)
We come off a long layoff and respond with a nice road win, 81-76. Wilson Le led the team with 20 points on the day. Moore scored 14 and had 7 assists from the PG spot. Pierre Jones fell just short of a double, double, with 10 points and 9 boards. I think he has a pretty good shot for Ivy League Freshman honors.

We had another long layoff, 8 days, and now open the league schedule on the road. We don’t get the start we were looking for as we lose 75-68. Moore was the only starter not scoring in double figures. Melton led the team with 16. Offense does not seem to be a problem for us, for the most part, this season. We are struggling to stop teams from scoring though. Maybe a change in formations is in order.

Northeastern (10-2) at Colgate (4-8)
We come away with a huge win against one of the top teams in the conference. This should give us a great confidence boost. The final score was 72-61. Melton went off for 25 points today. Jones added 13 along with 8 rebounds. Le had 10 points and Batiste grabbed 10 boards in 19 minutes of play off the bench.

It is very early, but we were able to knock off Northeastern, which is a great sign.
