Maine Is Struggling

Maine is struggling heading into this game and they have lost three games in a row. Two games ago against Boston University, Maine scored 56 points and they ended up losing by three points. In the last game against Bryant, the offense only scored 55 points, while the defense gave up 81 points. At halftime, they were down 38-25 and in the second half, it got even worse as they ended up losing 43-30. Guard AJ Lopez was the top player putting up 24 points and two rebounds. Outside of Lopez though, there wasn’t a whole lot of production, and that led to the defeat. 

Maine on the season is averaging 71.1 points while their defense is giving up 67.4 points per game. The offense is ranked 276th in the league while the defense is ranked 83rd. This is a team that is good from the free-throw line shooting 78.4 percent. The problem though is they are averaging only 12.2 free throws per game which is 279th in the league. Guard AJ Lopez has been the top player averaging 14 points while shooting 46.1 percent from the field and 41.8 percent from behind the three-point line. Maine will face Albany following this one.

• Binghamton has lost four of its last five road night games against Conference opponents.
• Binghamton has lost the first half in six of its last seven road night games against Conference opponents.

Can Binghamton Win a Second Straight Game?

Binghamton in the last game faced off against UMBC and although it wasn’t the prettiest game, they were still able to secure the 87-82 victory. At halftime, they were up 44-43 and in the second half, they held on for the victory. Guard Chris Walker had a strong game putting up 21 points, five rebounds, and two assists. There were five different players that put up at least 10 points per game. Two games ago against Marist, the offense wasn’t good enough and they ended up losing 69-51. Ben Callahan-Gold put up 10 points and four assists. 

Binghamton on the season is averaging 70.1 points while their defense is giving up 70.8 points per game. The offense is ranked 294th in the league while the defense is ranked 166th. In two games, the offense was so bad, and that is something they need to avoid here. The offense needs to get out to a faster start.
