Review of Last Night’s Action

There were 9 games yesterday to help Providence boost their RPI. The overall results were 7-2. Florida State needed double overtime to outlast Wake Forest at home, 82-76. URI got a last second tip in by Gil Biruta to win at Fordham, 64-63. Binghamton went on the road and beat UMBC, 68-56, to get their 3rd win of the season. Stony Brook improved to 15-8 with a home win against Hartford, 72-66. Albany beat Vermont on the road in a low scoring affair, 47-44. Navy defended their home court against American, 64-54. Notre Dame beat Duke, 77-73, at home in an exciting game between top 10 teams. Boston College gave Louisville all the Cardinals could handle but came up short at home, 81-72. Miami dropped a home ACC game against Georgia Tech, 70-50. That loss assures the Hurricanes will drop from the top 25 on Monday.

Tonight’s Action

There are 2 games today for PC to get some RPI assistance in addition to their own afternoon tip at home against DePaul.
