ALBANY, NY - Siena Basketball hosts Monmouth in a critical Senior Day showdown Sunday at 2 p.m. at MVP Arena. The Saints enter play tied for second place in the MAAC Standings with Saint Peter's, and just a game clear of the Hawks with only three games remaining.

Siena (14-11, 11-6) is set to honor five seniors - Anthony Gaines, Nick Hopkins, Robert Mahala, Michael Tertsea, and manager Carter Morelli - in a special pregame ceremony at 1:45 p.m. The Saints are eager to send out their seniors victorious in their final home game at MVP Arena, while also taking a big step forward towards locking up the two-seed for the MAAC Tournament. Siena currently holds the head-to-head tiebreaker with Saint Peter's by virtue of their regular season series sweep of the Peacocks, and are in search of a vital season series split against the Hawks. 

Monmouth (18-10, 10-7) fell a half-game back of both the Saints and Saint Peter's with a 70-65 home setback against the Peacocks Friday night in West Long Branch. The Hawks can secure a First Round bye in the MAAC Tournament with a win today, a feat both Siena and Saint Peter's achieved following Friday's results. The Saints have clinched a top-five seed, and will play their first MAAC Tournament game in the quarterfinal round on either Wednesday, Mar. 9 or Thursday, Mar. 10. 

Siena and Monmouth are meeting for the second time in just six days, after the Hawks captured a rescheduled matchup 71-59 Tuesday night on the Jersey Shore. Monmouth held the Saints to a season-low 31.8% shooting, including only 3-20 from three. The Hawks lead the all-time series 13-8.
