NE-10 Standings
The Plot: The College of Saint Rose welcomes Southern Connecticut State for a
Northeast-10 Conference encounter this afternoon. The Golden Knights and Owls are both aiming to get 2013 off on a high note after more than two-week hiatuses.
Last Time Out: Saint Rose split its two games at the Adelphi Holiday Classic back on Saturday and Sunday, December 15 and 16 on Long Island. Junior center
Dominykas Milka collected a full court inbound pass from junior guard
James Wilson and drained a 10-foot turnaround floater at the buzzer to lead the Golden Knights to a 56-54 victory versus Bridgeport on Saturday. The following afternoon, Saint Rose surrendered an 11-point halftime lead and subsequently fell 67-61 at the hands of Philadelphia University.
Last Meeting | Southern Conn. 80-71 (2/4/12 at Saint Rose): Rob Gutierrez poured in a career-high 29 points, but it was not enough as visiting Southern Connecticut State walked away with an 80-71 victory last February 4. Gutierrez hit 10-of-17 shots from the floor and also hauled in nine rebounds in a workmanlike 39 minutes of action for Saint Rose. Brian Hanuschak secured his 19th career “double-double” via 16 points and 14 boards. Sophomore guard Tylon Smith was one of three players in twin-figures for Southern. Smith filled up the box score to the tune of 23 points, seven rebounds and five assists. Senior forward Trevon Hamlet tossed in 16 points, while junior guard Greg Langston added 10.
