LANGHORNE, PA - The following is a preview of what’s going on in Crimson Eagle athletics for the week of February 7th.
With Saturday’s contest postponed due to the weekend snowstorm, the men’s basketball squad (5-14, 3-9 CSAC) will return to action on Tuesday for a date with longtime rival Baptist Bible College (2-17, 0-13 CSAC) in the Mason Activity Center at 8:00 pm. PBU slipped past the Defenders during their initial meeting two weeks ago, signaling the program’s first triumph over BBC in five years. The Crimson Eagles will continue a three game homestand on Thursday by going up against the Knights of Neumann University (10-10, 8-5 CSAC) at 7:00 pm. The group will wrap up the week on Saturday against Keystone College (15-5, 9-3 CSAC) during a 4:00 pm home tilt against the Giants.
The women’s basketball team (3-17, 0-10 CSAC) will open up play against Baptist Bible College (4-15, 1-10 CSAC) during Tuesday’s home doubleheader with the Defenders as PBU will look to avenge a seven point loss to their counterpart on January 28. Game time is 6:00 pm. The Crimson Eagles will forge ahead on minimal rest when the group goes up against Marywood University (14-5, 8-2 CSAC) the following evening on the road. Wednesday’s make-up game against the Pacers is slated to start at 6:00 pm. The squad will conclude the week by taking on Keystone College (4-14, 2-8 CSAC) on Saturday in Langhorne at 2:00 pm. PBU dropped a 58-56 heartbreaker in their first go-around.
Following a weekend of cancelations for the men’s volleyball team (8-1, 3-0 NECVA Western) as well, the Crimson Eagles will get back into action during their lone contest of the upcoming week on Thursday. Having bulled through Stevenson University (7-2, 2-1 NECVA Western) during a 3-0 sweep late last week, the Mustangs will get a second crack at PBU this Thursday. The seventh-ranked Crimson Eagles will head to Stevenson for a date with their Western Division foe, with match time slated for 7:00 pm.
