The Eagles concluded non-conference play against the Albany Great Danes who came into the game as +16 underdogs and holding a 2-7 record on the season. Needless to say, the inception of the contest did not reflect those numbers.
The first half of this game was easily some of the worst basketball the Eagles have played to date. Not sure if the players were too distracted by upcoming final exams, but whatever it was they clearly seemed out of sorts. Attacking the paint proved completely ineffective as the aside from a few nice takes from Jaeden Zackery the Eagles kept committing charging penalties when trying to muscle their way into the paint and otherwise were simply just taking terrible looking shots from the field.
