Mountaineers at Knights. January 7, 2015. 8:00pm.
The Niagara College men's basketball (3-6, 8th West) program is getting set to host the Mohawk Mountaineers (7-2, 2nd West) to start the unofficial second half of the 2014-15 season.
The Knights will be looking at 2015 as a fresh start, after losing three straight contests to end 2014. Their last loss came against the Redeemer Royals 73-64, on December 4.
Before ending the year with a loss at Fanshawe, the Mountaineers strung together an impressive seven game win streak.
The Knights are winless versus Mohawk so far in two contests and will be looking to even the season series at one.
