Fairfield @ Manhattan

Current Records: Fairfield 12-16; Manhattan 14-12

What to Know

The Fairfield Stags and the Manhattan Jaspers will face off in an MAAC clash at 2 p.m. ET Feb. 27 at Draddy Gymnasium. Neither Fairfield nor Manhattan could muster much offensive firepower in their last games, so look to the defense to decide this one.

The contest between the Stags and the Iona Gaels last week was not particularly close, with Fairfield falling 76-58.

Meanwhile, the game between Manhattan and the Marist Red Foxes this past Friday was not a total blowout, but with Manhattan falling 74-56 on the road, it was darn close to turning into one.

Fairfield is now 12-16 while the Jaspers sit at 14-12. Fairfield is 4-11 after losses this season, Manhattan 6-5.
