What to Know

The Monmouth Hawks are 0-5 against the Hofstra Pride since December of 2017, but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit Wednesday. Monmouth and Hofstra will face off in a Colonial battle at 7 p.m. ET at Mack Sports Complex. The Pride will be strutting in after a victory while Monmouth will be stumbling in from a defeat.

A win for Monmouth just wasn't in the stars this past Saturday as the team never even grasped a temporary lead. They took a serious blow against the Drexel Dragons, falling 67-35. Forward Myles Foster (13 points) was the top scorer for Monmouth.

Meanwhile, Hofstra strolled past the William & Mary Tribe with points to spare this past Saturday, taking the game 75-62. It was another big night for the Pride's guard Aaron Estrada, who had 20 points and seven assists.

The Hawks are the clear underdogs, so they're hoping it's the size of the fight that determines this one. Those sticking with them against the spread have guts, to put it politely, as the squad has let down bettors in their past five games.

Monmouth is now 1-15 while Hofstra sits at 10-7. Hofstra is 6-3 after wins this season, and Monmouth is 1-13 after losses.
