What to Know

The Old Dominion Monarchs will take on the East Carolina Pirates at 7 p.m. ET Tuesday at Williams Arena at Minges Coliseum. Both teams are tiptoeing into their matchup after sneaking past their previous opponents.

The Longwood Lancers typically have all the answers at home, but this past Friday Old Dominion proved too difficult a challenge. The Monarchs escaped with a win by the margin of a single free throw, 62-61.

Speaking of close games: East Carolina came out on top in a nail-biter against the Coppin State Eagles this past Saturday, sneaking past 70-68.

Old Dominion is expected to lose this next one by 5.5. Those sticking with them against the spread have guts, to put it politely, as the squad has let down bettors in their past four games.

Their wins bumped Old Dominion to 3-4 and East Carolina to 5-2. Watch the contest and check back on CBS Sports to find out who keeps up the positive energy and who hits a stumbling block.
