Siena No. 8 in SI Mid-Major poll

The Saints have deflected a lot of preseason hype and after a disappointing trip to Orlando, their only losses have come against top-ranked Pitt and defending national champion Kansas.

Just out on Sports Illustrated, Siena is ranked No. 8 in the national mid-major poll

8. Siena (12-5)
- The Saints put up a good fight at Kansas in a 91-84 loss, hitting 10 threes and nearly erasing a 20-point deficit. Siena has won 10 of 12, losing at Pittsburgh and Kansas.

Also, I would be remiss without mentioning that junior point guard Ronald Moore was named Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Player of the Week after averaging 14.7 points, 6.7 assists and 5.0 rebounds in three games this past week.

Moore scored 18 against Kansas, 13 against Rider and then 13 more against Manhattan.
