What to Know

The Lehigh Mountain Hawks will look to defend their home court Sunday against the St. Francis (Pa.) Red Flash at 7 p.m. ET. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W.'

The matchup between Lehigh and the Virginia Cavaliers this past Friday was not particularly close, with the Mountain Hawks falling 61-43.

As for St. Francis (Pa.), it looks like they got the smaller half of the wishbone at Thanksgiving dinner. They took a hard 93-80 fall against the Cornell Big Red this past Wednesday.

Barring any buzzer beaters, Lehigh is expected to win a tight contest. Those who got lucky with them against the spread this past Friday might want to hold off on placing bets this time since the squad has yet to string together back-to-back wins against the spread.

Lehigh is now 1-5 while St. Francis (Pa.) sits at 1-3. A couple stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Mountain Hawks are 15th worst in college basketball in points per game, with only 61.3 on average. The Red Flash have experienced some struggles of their own as they are stumbling into the game with the 45th most points allowed per game in college basketball, having given up 76.8 on average. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
