Last Time Out: The College of Saint Rose rallied from a 19 point early second half deficit to get to within five, but could not get any closer in Saturday's 92-71 setback to visiting Northeast-10 Conference rival Stonehill. Junior guard Adam Anderson scored 17 of his 26 points, one shy of his season-high, in the second half to pace the Golden Knights. Freshman swing Cartier Bowman recorded his fourth "double-double" of the year behind 15 points and 12 rebounds.
 
Scouting Saint Rose (4-18/1-12 NE10): Five underclassmen have made 72 out of a possible 110 starts for the Golden Knights this season…Sophomore forward Sekou Sylla continues to lead the NE10 with 11.5 rebounds per game and is second behind a 22.1 scoring average…He is tied for first in the country with 16 "double-doubles" and stands fourth in rebounding…Anderson is scoring at a 13.9 ppg clip after averaging 18.2 ppg throughout the last five contests…He was named to the NE10 weekly honor roll for the second time this season on Monday…Bowman is averaging 10.7 ppg and 7.3 rpg on the year…He has been in double-figures scoring in seven straight games.
 
Scouting Le Moyne (15-6/11-2 NE10): The NE10 Southwest Division leading Dolphins had their five-game win streak snapped with Saturday's 95-61 setback at Assumption in Worcester, Mass.…They arrive in the Capital Region averaging an NE10 leading 84.3 points, thanks in part to a league best 80.4 percent (274-for-341) shooting from the foul line…Six players produce at least 9.5 points per game…Senior guard Ryan Roland leads the way with a 15.6 scoring average, while senior forward Tom Brown averages 13.2 points and 9.9 rebounds per outing…Roland is second among the league leaders with a 3.5 assists:turnover ratio, while Brown is second only to Sylla in rebounding…Six seniors, plus a pair of graduate students, are listed on the Le Moyne roster.
 
Blackout Night: The first 750 fans in attendance at Wednesday's doubleheader will receive a free t-shirt as we aim to "Blackout" Nolan Gymnasium. There will also be a student raffle for a chance to win a set of Airpods at halftime of each game. The Saint Rose women's teams will be honored at halftime of the women's game as part of National Girls and Women in Sports Day and the women's soccer team will be acknowledged at halftime of the men's game in recognition of their run to the NCAA Championship National Semifinals.
 
Upstate Challenge: Le Moyne and Saint Rose announced the formation of the Upstate Challenge rivalry series in the fall of 2011. The two schools square off in 17 sports in which they compete head-to-head in the regular season or during the NE10 Championship. The winner of the series is awarded the "Upstate Challenge" trophy. The competition originally included 14 sports, but grew to 16 at the outset of the 2014-15 season after the Dolphins added track and field programs. It expanded to 17 in 2016-17 with the addition of women's golf. The all-time series stands at 4-1-3 in favor of Le Moyne.
 
Up Next: Looking ahead, both squads return to the hardwood Saturday for the second half of league doubleheaders. The Golden Knights head to Pleasantville to take on Pace University at 3:30 pm, while the Dolphins host New Haven at 3:00 pm.
