The Stonehill Skyhawks are off to a 7-13 start to the 2022-23 NCAA Basketball season, fourth in the Northeast Conference, and are on a two-game losing streak.
In their previous outing, they lost against the Fairleigh Dickinson Knights (65-57). Isaiah Burnett came up with 20 points but other players failed to make an impact, causing the team to lose by eight points.
The Skyhawks will now take on the Long Island University Sharks, who are at the bottom of the same conference and are on a massive six-game losing streak. The St. Francis BK Terriers defeated them 73-66 in their last outing.
Quion Burns came off the bench and scored 19 points for the team but it wasn't enough to seal a win. LIU will now host this game at the Steinberg Wellness Center on Friday (January 20) where they will look to avoid their seventh consecutive loss.
