Regular Season Records: Quinnipiac 13-16; Siena 15-13

What to Know

The Quinnipiac Bobcats haven't won a matchup against the Siena Saints since Feb. 17 of 2019, but they'll be looking to end the drought Thursday. The Bobcats and Siena are set to clash at 7 p.m. ET March 10 at Boardwalk Hall in the second round of the Metro Atlantic Conference Tourney. Quinnipiac should still be feeling good after a big victory, while the Saints will be looking to right the ship.

Quinnipiac earned some postseason bragging rights after a successful outing on Tuesday. They blew past the Marist Red Foxes 77-52. Quinnipiac can attribute much of their success to forward Jacob Rigoni, who shot 7-for-11 from beyond the arc and finished with 26 points and six boards, and Dezi Jones, who almost posted a triple-double on 20 points, ten rebounds, and eight dimes.

Meanwhile, Siena was close but no cigar on Saturday as they fell 67-64 to the Canisius Golden Griffins.

Barring any buzzer beaters, the Bobcats are expected to win a tight contest. But bettors beware: they are only 2-6-1 against the spread when favored.

Siena's defeat took them down to 15-13 while Quinnipiac's win pulled them up to 13-16. A win for the Saints would reverse both their bad luck and Quinnipiac's good luck. We'll see if Siena manages to pull off that tough task or if Quinnipiac keeps their momentum going instead.
