Tonight's games
Three MAAC teams -- Niagara, which plays at Villanova, Manhattan, which hosts Morgan State, and Saint Peter's, which takes on Wagner -- are in action tonight.
The Philadelphia Inquirer notes that the Purple Eagles are loaded with local guys, including former Wildcat Bilal Benn and Bucks County native Tyrone Lewis.
It'll be interesting to see how the 1-0 Purple Eagles handle a ranked team in a hostile environment, which the Pavilion can certainly be. If they can keep Nova's lead in single digits for most of the game, it'll be a good sign, especially coming off a blowout win in their opener. The Wildcats are 2-0, with wins over Albany and Fordham.
Those of you blessed with ESPNU can watch it on TV.
It should also be interesting to see how Manhattan does in its first game against a legitimate Division I opponent. (The Jaspers cruised past NJIT in their opener, helping the Highlanders tie the NCAA record for consecutive losses). The Bears, whose football team was in the Tri-State area in September to play Rutgers, are 1-1 with a win over UMBC and a close loss at LaSalle.

Saint Peter's and Wagner are both looking for their first win as the sqaure off on Staten Island.
In New Jersey, Princeton is looking for its first win as it hosts Maine at Jadwin Gym.
