What to Know

The Lafayette Leopards are 2-10 against the Navy Midshipmen since January of 2016, but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit Monday. The Leopards and Navy will face off in a Patriot battle at 7 p.m. ET at Alumni Hall. These two teams are tiptoeing into their matchup after sneaking past their previous opponents.

Things were close when Lafayette and the Bucknell Bison clashed this past Saturday, but Lafayette ultimately edged out the opposition 74-72.

Speaking of close games: the Loyola-Maryland Greyhounds typically have all the answers at home, but this past Saturday Navy proved too difficult a challenge. Navy escaped with a win by the margin of a single free throw, 56-55.

The Leopards are expected to lose this next one by 9. Those betting on them against the spread shouldn't have high expectations for them since the squad is 3-7-1 ATS when expected to lose.

Their wins bumped Lafayette to 7-14 and the Midshipmen to 15-8. We'll see which team can carry over their success and which team inevitably falls when Lafayette and Navy clash.
