NIAGARA UNIVERSITY ATHLETICS
The Niagara Purple Eagles continue their conference road-opening weekend at the Marist Red Foxes on Sunday, January 7 at 2 p.m.
The Purple Eagles began 2018 on a winning note, defeating the Siena Saints 84-76 for their first MAAC win of the season. Niagara’s 8-8 record is its best record through 16 games since the 2012-13 season (8-8). NU has won four straight road games for its longest streak since the 2012-13 season, and has not won five straight on the road since 2008-09 season.
The Purple Eagles will be looking to win their first two conference road games for the first time since the 2008-09 season. The last seven meetings with Marist have been decided by less than six points. The Purple Eagles have won once in their last four trips to the McCann Center.
All WNY is made possible thanks to coffee and sleep deprivation.
