In it's first nationally televised game of the year the Hawks will host Marist at Hartford on Sunday February 15th at 1:00. The game will be televised on ESPN2 but according to ESPN2 they will be broadcasting the "most compelling game" over the course of the afternoon. Most compelling involves regional considerations (i.e. New England/New York) and closeness of game (probably us again). The Marist Red Foxes are a lot like the Hawks.
Both teams have been briefly nationally ranked and both had first round wins in the NCAA Tourney last year. Last year the Hawks broke Marist's 41 game home win streak which was then the longest in the nation. This year the Red Foxes hope to break Hartford's 33 game home winning streak, the second longest in the nation behind UConn.
It's Think Pink week so both teams will be sporting pink uniforms in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Week.
