Welcome back to the Trentonian's Full-Court Press blog. Yes, we're still alive, and with the 2015-16 season rapidly approaching, it's time to fire up the old blog for another season. Check back here throughout the year for updates on all things Rider and Princeton, including coverage of both the MAAC and Ivy League.

Hounds in preseason NIT


Loyola will represent the MAAC in the preseason NIT, for which the field was unveiled yesterday. The tournament has a big-time Jesuit flavor, with the Greyhounds opening at BC on Nov. 17, and with their Ignatian cousins from Chicago also in the tournament. 

Seven teams in the 16-team field played in the NCAA tournament last year, headlined by Stephen Curry and Davidson, fresh off their trip to the Elite Eight. And who do the Wildcats play in the first round? James Madison, in the Dukes' first game under new head coach Matt Brady.

Would be fun to see Loyola make a nice run and grab some attention for the MAAC. It would make it even sweeter when Fairfield beats them later in the season.
