Fourth place showdown on the Island

The University at Albany has been struggling lately, losing five of their last seven.

The Great Danes now stand at 5-6 in the America East, four games behind first place Vermont.

Tonight, UAlbany meets Stony Brook (5-6, 13-11), who dealt the Great Danes one of their two home losses this season back on Jan. 23.

Coach Will Brown didn't make any players available to the media following that game and called it a very disappointing effort.

UAlbany needs to turn things around with only five games to go to gain some momentum heading into the conference tournament, which they host.

After tonight, the Great Danes' last four games are against teams behind them in the standings.

If they can win tonight, I like their chances to go 3-1 in their last four and finish the conference season 9-7.

It has to start tonight though and I think it will.

Prediction: UAlbany 63, Stony Brook 53 (My record is 17-7)
