Last time out, the Eagles winning four-game winning streak came to an end with a road loss to Army 72-61.
In the loss, Colin Smalls led three Eagles in double-digits with 13.
AU stays on the road as they face Lehigh today.
The Eagles have been one of the biggest surprises in college basketball as they’ve jumped out to a 12-4 start… 4-1 in the Patriot League.
Lehigh comes in winners of three in a row. Two of the wins have come on the road… Bucknell and Navy.
Overall, Lehigh is 8-8, 3-2 in conference
Keys for the Eagles:
- Johnny O’Neil needs to get more than 5 shot attempts. That’s what he had against Army. It was the least amount of shot attempts he’s had all season.
- Matt Rogers might not need a double-double but it would be great if he’s trending that way. The last two games, Rogers has had 11 and 12 respectively. The Eagles would be better off if he’s more in that 14-15 range.
- Control the boards. AU was out-rebounded 28-14 against Army. That can’t happen again
