What to Know

We've got another exciting Coastal Athletic matchup on schedule as the Towson Tigers and the Hampton Pirates are set to tip at 2:00 p.m. ET on February 17th at Hampton Convocation Center. Hampton does have the home-court advantage, but Towson is expected to win by 12 points.

Winning is just a little bit easier when your three-point shooting is a whole 23.5% better than the opposition, a fact Towson proved on Thursday. They walked away with a 61-52 victory over the Tribe. The win made it back-to-back wins for Towson.

Meanwhile, Hampton's recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Thursday after their third straight loss. They were the victim of a painful 93-73 defeat at the hands of the Seawolves. Hampton has not had much luck with the Seawolves recently, as the team's come up short the last two times they've met.

The Tigers have been performing well recently as they've won seven of their last nine matches, which provided a nice bump to their 16-10 record this season. As for the Pirates, their defeat was their 14th straight on the road dating back to last season, which dropped their record down to 5-21.

Saturday's contest is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: Towson have been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 39.3 rebounds per game. However, it's not like Hampton struggles in that department as they've been averaging 36.5 rebounds per game. Given these competing strengths, it'll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.

Towson was able to grind out a solid victory over the Pirates when the teams last played back in February of 2023, winning 86-72. The rematch might be a little tougher for Towson since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
