OK, we have a week and a half until HC faces the Gaels, but let's get started.
Massey has Iona as a six point favorite (66-72) and gives them a 69% likelihood of a win.

Iona is 4-4. They lost at Albany by 2, at Syracuse by 9, and in the Bahamas to Coastal Carolina by 5 and to Northern Kentucky by 13. Their wins came against Weber State (in the Bahamas) and over the last three straight games (all away) against Ohio, FDU, and NJIT. They are becoming "road warriors." They have two more games before they face HC - home (finally) against Yale and away against St. John's. They beat FDU by 7 (about what those who watched the game said should have been the margin of an HC victory in Teaneck). On paper these two teams seem to be evenly matched in talent, but Iona has the edge in experience and will be favored.

Note that Zach Lewis normally starts for Iona at SG He missed last game with an illness after starting the first seven games. Lewis has faced Holy Cross three times in his career, twice in a Canisius uniform and last year while playing for UMass. He averages about 31 mpg for Iona and is their second leading scorer.

just a quick note of gratitude to rgs for providing all of his informative previews of our opponents. they are very much appreciated and save us from doing independent “homework” on our opponents.
