This will be a tough game for sure but lucky for us, they're:
1) dealing with some injury issues. They're starting PG, Shungu, has missed the last 7 games.
Their starting C, Giddens, went out after 5 minutes against Yale with a thigh injury, and another starting guard, Smith, played 30 minutes against Yale but was held scoreless and apparently is suffering from back stiffness.
2) playing on short rest. This will be their 8th game away from home this season so they are certainly battle tested, but after back-to-back D1 losses to Rider and Yale, it's looking like we're catching them at a good time.
and
3) not getting their best play out of Lamb, who has only made 5 of his last 26 3-point attempts.
They are a stellar defensive team though, holding D1 opponents to 37% shooting from the field and 27% from 3.
