Halftime Report

Wagner and the Knights have shown up to the game, but their offenses sure haven't. Sitting on a score of 27-23, Wagner has looked like the better team, but there's still one more half to play.

Wagner came into the contest with some extra motivation after the defeat they were dealt the last time these two teams faced off. We'll see if they're able to flip the script or if it'll just be more of the same.

What to Know

We've got another exciting Northeast matchup on schedule as the Wagner Seahawks and the FDU Knights are set to tip at 7:00 p.m. ET on February 8th at Bogota Savings Bank Center. Coming off a loss in a game Wagner was expected to win, they now face the more daunting task of proving themselves against unfavorable odds.

Last Saturday, the Seahawks couldn't handle the Skyhawks and fell 71-61.

Meanwhile, winning is just a little bit easier when you work as a team to rack up 12 more assists than your opponent, a fact FDU proved on Thursday. They walked away with an 82-75 victory over the Sharks. The victory made it back-to-back wins for FDU.

The Seahawks' loss was their third straight on the road, which dropped their record down to 10-11. Those losses could be blamed on the team's lackluster offensive performance across that stretch, as they only averaged 63.3 points per game. As for the Knights, they are on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six matches, which provided a nice bump to their 11-12 record this season.

Wagner ended up a good deal behind the Knights in their previous matchup back in February of 2023, losing 66-48. Can Wagner avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
