What to Know

The Pittsburgh Panthers will play host again and welcome the Towson Tigers to Petersen Events Center, where tip-off is scheduled for 6 p.m. ET Friday. Both teams come into the game bolstered by wins in their previous games.

Pitt netted a 59-51 win over the UNC-Wilmington Seahawks on Tuesday. Guard Femi Odukale (15 points) and forward John Hugley (13 points) were the top scorers for the Panthers.

Meanwhile, Towson took their matchup against the Hampton Pirates on Tuesday by a conclusive 78-54 score.

Pitt is expected to win this handily, but they should have beaten the The Citadel Bulldogs Nov. 9 easily too and instead slipped up with a 78-63. In other words, don't count Towson out just yet.
