Next came a losing streak versus Mississippi State, FIU and Georgia, then wins over Central Connecticut, Chicago State, Mercyhurst, Saint Francis, FDU, Stonehill, Le Moyne and Central Connecticut in the next nine outings. Over the first 22 games of the season that would give the Sharks a 14-8 overall record in the books.

Stonehill vs LIU Prediction

I’ll take a stab on Stonehill but it’s a coin flip. The Skyhawks also need to bounce back from a rather listless road loss to Fairleigh Dickinson this week. In that one Stonehill shot just 36.7 percent from the field with a 34-25 rebounding deficit and 12 turnovers. the Skyhawks are 3-1 in their last four games but they’ve scored fewer than 66 points in seven straight (a 4-3 run).

These teams last saw each other on January 23 in a 6-63 home loss for Stonehill. In that one the Skyhawks shot a solid 46.4 percent from the field and had a 35-26 rebounding edge with a 40-28 advantage on points in the paint. Stonehill got to the line just 10 times (making six) though, and had 15 turnovers. Still, with a few tweaks and some better ball control I think the Skyhawks have a good shot in this road rematch.
