What to Know

The Vermont Catamounts won both of their matches against the Stony Brook Seawolves last season (86-78 and 61-57) and are aiming for the same result Wednesday. Vermont's homestand continues as they prepare to take on Stony Brook at 7 p.m. ET Jan. 12 at Roy L Patrick Gymnasium. The Catamounts are out to keep their five-game home win streak alive.

Vermont strolled past the New Hamp. Wildcats with points to spare last week, taking the contest 82-68.

Meanwhile, Stony Brook beat the Maine Black Bears 80-72 this past Saturday.

Vermont is the favorite in this one, with an expected 11-point margin of victory. There could be an interesting gambling play in this one, as they have done quite well against the spread at home this season while the Seawolves have struggled against the spread on the road.

The wins brought the Catamounts up to 9-4 and Stony Brook to 9-5. A pair of defensive numbers to keep in mind before tip-off: Vermont enters the matchup with only 60.7 points allowed per game on average, good for 24th best in college basketball. Less enviably, Stony Brook has allowed their opponents to shoot 46% from the floor on average, which is the 24th highest shooting percentage allowed in college basketball. So the cards are definitely stacked against the Seawolves.
