Marist vs Quinnipiac Game Preview, MAAC Conference Tournament


Why Marist Will Win

The Red Foxes are playing well.

They might have been rocked in their last two games – both on the road – but that was coming off a nice six-game winning streak with the defense coming up with one of its best stretches of the season.
