The Niagara Purple Eagles are in a funk, losers of their last 4, but should get back in the Win column today when they host the Fairfield Stags in a matinée at Gallagher Center. Fairfield has lost 3 straight and are just 3-7 on the road, averaging 64.4 points per game and holding teams to an average of 71.6. Niagara sits at 7-7 at home, where they are averaging 75.2 points per game and holding teams to an average of 75.0. The Purple Eagles have the edge in points per game, free throw percentage, rebounding, turn overs and bench. If their defense does its job, Niagara gets the win.
