What to Know

After a two-game homestand, the American Eagles will be on the road. American and the Loyola-Maryland Greyhounds will face off in a Patriot battle at 5 p.m. ET Saturday at Reitz Arena. Loyola-Maryland will be strutting in after a win while the Eagles will be stumbling in from a defeat.

American received a tough blow on Wednesday as they fell 70-54 to the Navy Midshipmen.

Meanwhile, everything went Loyola-Maryland's way against the Holy Cross Crusaders on Wednesday as they made off with a 90-68 victory.

American is expected to win this handily, but they should have beaten Holy Cross Feb. 11 easily too and instead slipped up with a 74-66. In other words, don't count the Greyhounds out just yet.
