What to Know

The Coppin State Eagles are on the road again Tuesday and play against the George Washington Colonials at 6 p.m. ET Dec. 13 at Charles E. Smith Center. Given that these two teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this contest.

Coppin State came up short against the East Carolina Pirates on Sunday, falling 84-75. Guard Sam Sessoms (22 points) was the top scorer for Coppin State.

Meanwhile, George Washington was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap this past Saturday as they fell 69-64 to the American Eagles. One thing holding the Colonials back was the mediocre play of guard Brendan Adams, who did not have his best game: he finished with 12 points on 4-for-15 shooting in his 37 minutes on the court.
