MAAC rivals St. Peter’s and Iona meet tonight on Iona’s home floor.
This will be the only contest this season between each school; Iona has won nine of its last ten encounters vs. St. Peter’s.
Iona is 7-4 at home in 18-19′. Meanwhile, Saint Peter’s is just 1-12 on the road this year. The Peacock’s are 2-11 vs. favored opponents and Iona has a sub .500 6-8 record as the favored team this year.
Coming into tonight’s tilt, Saint Peter’s has lost five-consecutive starts –most recently 64-60 vs. visiting conference standout Canasius.
Host Iona has salvaged its slim hopes of a MAAC regular-season title by downing two-straight opponents to allay a prior four-game losing streak.
St. Peter’s Peacocks
Currently sitting last in a conference which fields just one team above .500 overall, St. Peter’s is proverbial trap-game fodder.
The Peacocks’ last win came via a slim 74-72 margin Jan. 22 against mediocre Niagra. Most recently, Saint Peter’s ceded 21 points to Takai Molson as Canasius silenced a Peacock crowd pining for a little luck after a series of narrow setbacks.

While St. Peter’s wins have dried, the team is playing just well enough to lose against superior opposition.
Could tonight be the night Shaheen Holloway’s men reverse recent trends and claim an upset road victory?
To do so, explosive performances will be required from leading scorers Davauhnte Turner (16.9 ppg) and Sam Idowu (11.2), plus a bevy of secondary and tertiary players.
Iona Gaels
Just 9-15 overall, seven of Iona’s nine wins come in MAAC play, and the Gaels are two games behind conference-leader Monmouth as five contests remain.
Most importantly, however, recent nods over Sienna and Niagra indicate Tim Cluess’ group might be peaking at the perfect time.

The Gaels used a star showing from junior Tajuan Agee (25 pts) to overcome Sienna’s first-half lead en route to a 57-52 road win Wednesday night.
Iona will need similar focus and execution tonight to keep pace with the MAAC’s upper echelon as regular-season play unfolds. Simply, the Gaels can’t afford another loss to an underdog opponent.
CBB Betting Trends:
- Iona is 7-4 SU at home this season.
- St. Peter’s is 1-12 on the road this season.
- St. Peter’s is 6-7 ATS in road games this season.
- Iona is 6-8 SU as the favorite this season.
Free St. Peter’s Peacocks vs. Iona Gaels NCAAB Prediction:
Fueled by do-or-die tension, and a supportive home crowd, Iona will avoid the trap which St. Peter’s has planned.
4* Free CBB Betting Pick: St. Peters covers the 8
Gaels standouts E.J. Crawford, Rickey McGill, and Agee will offer too much late scoring for frustrated St. Peter’s. Though, don’t be surprised if the plucky Peacock’s cover the spread.
NCAAB Free Score Prediction: Iona Gaels 72 – St. Peter’s Peacocks 68
