For Your Information:
SUNY Cobleskill: Saturday will mark the first time SUNY Cobleskill has played at Lancaster Bible in basketball. The Fighting Tigers' victory over SUNYIT was a big help to LBC's chances of claiming the conference's top seed for the NEAC playoffs as LBC holds the tie-breaker over Keuka, but not SUNYIT. The top seed is determined by the winner of the head-to-head matchup between the division winners. The Chargers defeated Keuka, but not SUNYIT.
Lancaster Bible: Saturday begins a four-game homestand for the Chargers who will host Valley Forge Christian, Wilson and Penn St. Abington after the Fighting Tigers. Next Saturday, February 9, the Chargers will once again hold a Play4Kay Game as they host Wilson. The Chargers will wear pink during warmups to honor the fight against breast cancer.
