Iona was working as a unit and finished the game with 19 assists. That’s a new trend for them: they were averaging 11.1 assists per game earlier this season, but in their last five contests they’ve averaged 17.6.
Meanwhile, there’s no place like home for Siena, who bounced back after a tough loss on the road on Saturday. They walked away with an 82-68 victory over Mt St Mary’s on Thursday.

Saturday’s matchup is shaping up to be a scrappy game: Iona has crashing the boards this season, having averaged 37.1 rebounds per game. It’s a different story for Siena, though, as they’ve been averaging only 31.9. Given Iona’s sizable advantage in that area, Siena will need to find a way to close that gap.
