Tipoff: 7 p.m., Bogota Savings Bank Arena, Hackensack, N.J.

Live stats: https://fduknights.com/sidearmstats/mbball/summary

Notable: Including the past two seasons, either SFU or FDU has swept the two games in the regular season series 18 times. After sweeping last season, the Red Flash have a chance to make it four in a row tonight after a win in Loretto on Jan. 4. … FDU is the only team SFU has played over 100 times, and the Flash hold a 54-53 edge in the all-time series. … Being three games under .500 in the NEC might be right where Saint Francis wants to be if it can come up with some of that 2024-25 magic. The Red Flash was 3-6 and 5-8 last year, but won five of its last seven and its final three regular-season games on its way to a six-game winning streak and winning the NEC Tournament title.
