The Manhattan Jaspers are off to a 6-11 start to the 2022-23 NCAA Basketball season, sixth in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference.
They are coming off a loss against the Iona Gaels (84-76) in their last outing where Samir Stewart came off the bench to score 18 points but it wasn't enough to seal a victory for his team.
They will now take on the Rider Broncs, who are on a 8-9 start to the season, fourth in the same conference, and on a two-game winning streak.
The Broncs defeated the Niagara Purple Eagles (65-62) in their previous outing, where Mervin James and Dwight Murray Jr. stepped up to score 18 and 19 points respectively.
The game will be hosted by them at the Alumni Gymnasium on Sunday, January 22nd, where they will look to secure their third consecutive win. The Jaspers, on the other hand, will look to avoid another defeat.
