Current Records: American 2-1; Longwood 2-1
What to Know
The American Eagles are staying on the road Friday to face off against the Longwood Lancers at 5 p.m. ET Nov. 19 at Willett Hall. The neutral point spread forecasts a close one for these two.
American has to be hurting after a devastating 79-57 loss at the hands of the Georgetown Hoyas on Tuesday. The Eagles were surely aware of their 13.5-point disadvantage in the point spread, but the foreknowledge did nothing to prevent the result. Stacy Beckton Jr. (16 points) was the top scorer for American.
Meanwhile, Longwood took their game at home on Sunday with ease, bagging a 93-47 win over the Mid-Atlantic Christian Univ Mustangs.
Longwood's victory lifted them to 2-1 while American's defeat dropped them down to 2-1. We'll see if Longwood can repeat their recent success or if American bounces back and reverse their fortune.
