What to Know

Get ready for a Northeast battle as the Sacred Heart Pioneers and the Fairleigh Dickinson Knights will face off at 2 p.m. ET Saturday at William Pitt Center - West Gym. The teams split their matchups last year, with Fairleigh Dickinson winning the first 82-69 and Sacred Heart taking the second 70-64.

The Pioneers were close but no cigar two weeks ago as they fell 85-82 to the Bryant Bulldogs.

Meanwhile, the Knights beat the St. Francis (Pa.) Red Flash 70-62 two weeks ago.

Sacred Heart is the favorite in this one, with an expected 8-point margin of victory. Their home court has been no bettor's paradise, though, as they've failed to beat the spread in three of their five home games.

Fairleigh Dickinson's victory lifted them to 1-10 while Sacred Heart's defeat dropped them down to 5-10. We'll see if Fairleigh Dickinson can repeat their recent success or if Sacred Heart bounces back and reverse their fortune.
