Merrimack @ Army West Point

Current Records: Merrimack 2-1; Army West Point 2-1

What to Know

The Merrimack Warriors will hit the road for the third straight game as they head to Christl Arena at 6 p.m. ET Wednesday. The point spread is more or less neutral, so fans should expect a close contest.

The game between the Warriors and the Rutgers Scarlet Knights this past Saturday was not a total blowout, but with Merrimack falling 48-35 on the road, it was darn close to turning into one. Ziggy Reid had a rough afternoon: he finished with only three points on 1-for-11 shooting in his 37 minutes on the court.

Meanwhile, the Army West Point Black Knights picked up an 86-79 win over the Hartford Hawks this past Saturday.

Merrimack and Army now sit at an identical 2-1. Two stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Merrimack enters the matchup with 12 steals per game on average, good for 15th best in college basketball. Less enviably, Army has allowed their opponents an average of 9.3 steals per game, the 30th most in college basketball. In other words, they will need to work extra hard to take care of the ball.
