What to Know

We've got another exciting MAAC matchup on schedule as the Saint Peter's Peacocks and the Canisius Golden Griffins are set to tip at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday at Koessler Athletic Center. The Golden Griffins have the home-court advantage, but the Peacocks are expected to win by six points.

Last Friday, Saint Peter's came up short against Niagara and fell 70-60. The Peacocks have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.

Meanwhile, Canisius finally caught a break after 15 consecutive losses dating back to last season. They strolled past Rider with points to spare on Friday, taking the game 85-67. The Golden Griffins' offense stepped up their game for this one, as that was the most points they've scored all season.

Canisius was working as a unit and finished the game with 19 assists. That's a new trend for them: they were averaging 10.3 assists per game earlier this season, but in their last five contests they've averaged 15.

Saint Peter's defeat dropped their record down to 5-7. As for Canisius, their win (their first of the season) made their record 1-14.

Sunday's match is shaping up to be a scrappy game: Saint Peter's has been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 36.8 rebounds per game. It's a different story for Canisius, though, as they've been averaging only 26.5. Given Saint Peter's sizable advantage in that area, Canisius will need to find a way to close that gap.

Saint Peter's was able to grind out a solid victory over Canisius when the teams last played back in January of 2024, winning 70-59. The rematch might be a little tougher for Saint Peter's since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
