Monday

N.D. de Namur 66, UHH 64

Thursday

The skinny: The Vuls lead the all-time series 9-2, but the Hawks are balanced this year with five players averaging at least 9.0 points per game. Still, they’ve lost four of five.

For the Vuls, Trey Ingram (15.6 points per game) has scored at least nine points in each game this season as UHH relies on him and fellow senior guard Ryley Callaghan (14.4) more than ever now that they are depleted on the inside. They’ve lost five of six.
