RAMS RUNDOWN
Behind its six-game win streak, Suffolk slides into Saturday's showdown 12-6 on the year and 7-4 in the CCC. 

Four of the Rams' starting five averages double figures in scoring in Keenan Robertson (18.2), Aidan Sullivan (12.4), Cole LeVangie (12.2) and William Rowe (11.9) to pace the teams' 75.4 points per game offensive output.  

On the glass, Robertson's 6.7 rpg leads the way. LeVangie and Rowe grab 6.4 rpg and 6.2 rpg, respectively, to consistently contribute to the blue-and-gold's 40.1 rpg effort. 

LEOPARDS LOOK
Wentworth has coupled back-to-back wins together, an 83-63 decision at Salve Regina, and a 71-66 triumph over Western New England, to sit 10-8 on the season and 5-6 in CCC play.  

Jack Connell and Tyler Stewart provided a one-two punch to WIT's 70.9 ppg offense with 15.3 ppg and 12.3 ppg, respectively. 

Stewart is the backbone to the Leopards' 40.0 rpg with 8.3 rpg of his own. Jack Schaake adds 7.3 rpg to the effort on the glass.
