Here's what I think will be the last news item of the night:

The MAAC women's schedule is out -- and Rider figures to be about a four-touchdown underdog in its opener.

The Broncs, coming off a season marred by injuries and underachievement, will begin conference play Jan. 2 at defending champion Marist.

The rest of the Broncs' schedule:

Jan 4: Loyola
Jan. 8: at Siena
Jan. 10: Canisius
Jan. 13: Manhattan
Jan. 15: Saint Peter's
Jan. 21: at Iona
Jan. 24: at Manhattan
Jan. 28: Marist
Jan. 30: at Fairfield
Feb. 4: at Loyola
Feb. 6: Iona
Feb. 12: Fairfield
Feb. 14: Siena
Feb. 18: at Niagara
Feb. 20: at Canisius
Feb. 24: at Saint Peter's
Feb. 27: Niagara

The Niagara game will tip off at 11:30 a.m. on Senior Day. That's the only game for which a time has been set.
