Hello from New Rochelle!

It’s leg #2 of my MAAC doubleheader and I’m here at Hynes for the second meeting of Iona and Mount St. Mary’s this year. Game #72 of my season. Can the Gaels avenge the loss from December 29?

Tip is at 7

Bryce Eaton is down hurt
February 7, 2026 at 8:52 PM
Huge offensive rebound by Riley Mulvey. Siena's first of the second half. Leads to a Doty jumper.

Peacocks have been dominating the glass in the second half. 59-55 SPU
February 7, 2026 at 8:52 PM
Folefac with another and-1, this time making the FT. Was patient in the middle of the paint. 55-53 and he comes out of the game with 8 and change to go. Wonder when he'll come back in.

Scroggins scores underneath, SPU back up 4.
February 7, 2026 at 8:46 PM
Wow. Siena cut it to two, then stole the ball in the backcourt with the press, and Doty missed the game-tying layup. Then, on the way down the floor, Shoats grabbed Eaton's jersey and went for a ride. That's a flagrant 1.

Eaton 1-2 from the line. 51-48, SPU ball, 9:45 to play.
February 7, 2026 at 8:42 PM
Justice Shoats just denied a lob pass from Eaton to Perkins in transition. Huge hustle play that leads to Folefac drawing Williamson's 4th foul, and getting a chance to make it a one-possession game.
February 7, 2026 at 8:40 PM
Francis Folefac spins and scores. And-1. Foul called on Gupton. 7-0 Siena run. Four-point game.
February 7, 2026 at 8:38 PM
Siena cuts it to six with Doty FT's. 11:50 to play.
February 7, 2026 at 8:35 PM
Gerry McNamara just god T'd up and I'm shocked that he didn't get ejected there. Pushed the envelope even further with the officials after the initial T.

Didn't like a foul call. Eaton makes both technical free throws, now 47-39 Saint Peter's. Peacock ball
February 7, 2026 at 8:21 PM
But Francis Folefac somehow finishes the and-1. Siena scoring with SPU to open the second half, need to get some stops.

Saint Peter's 45, Siena 38, 15:37
Bryce Eaton hits a mid-range jumper and a triple to get up to 19 points. He's decidedly won the matchup on both sides of the floor against Justice Shoats, who has made just one field goal and doesn't have an assist, with 16 minutes to play.

Three fouls against Saint Peter's in the first 98 seconds of the second half. Williamson picked up his third, went to the bench. Chandler makes two FT's and it's 38-32 SPU
February 7, 2026 at 8:11 PM
HALFTIME: Saint Peter's 36, Siena 28

Siena goes scoreless over the last 4:40 in the half as the Peacocks mostly shut off their passageways to the rim -- although two missed layups in there too. Saints composure slipped a tad, but got a stop on the last possession.
February 7, 2026 at 7:53 PM
Saint Peter's is going to get a chance to make this double digits on the final possession of the half. Peacocks get a stop as Jones misses another good look from 3, and Bashir Mason calls timeout with 14.3 seconds left in the first.

36-28 SPU
February 7, 2026 at 7:51 PM
That's a Saint Peter's #killshot. They've made a habit of doing this near the end of the first half.

EJ Morgan drills a three from the right wing and it's 35-28. Comes after a bad turnover on the other end from Siena, with Coyle and Henderson miscommunicating.
February 7, 2026 at 7:47 PM
Antonio Chandler called for an away from the ball foul as Saint Peter's was going down the floor. It's his third foul, and they're reviewing it. I didn't get a good look at it, but looked like he knocked Williamson down
February 7, 2026 at 7:40 PM
Bryce Eaton draws the block on Shoats, and the Siena bench doesn't like the call. Gerry pleading that Shoats was in legal guarding position. This came right after Christian Jones missed an open three created by Eaton falling down.

Then Eaton gets an and-1. He's got 14. 28-28
February 7, 2026 at 7:39 PM
Gavin Doty picks up two fouls in rapid succession. He's scored just 2 of Siena's 25 points, and will check out of the game with 5:56 to play in the opening half

TJ Robinson goes one-for-two from the line, and it's 25-23 Siena
February 7, 2026 at 7:30 PM
Brendan Coyle cashes in from the left wing for his first three of the afternoon.
February 7, 2026 at 7:29 PM
There's that trademarked transition alley-oop for Lucas Scroggins, breaking a 3+ minute Saint Peter's scoring drought. Eaton tossed the pass from well beyond the arc.
