RAMS RUNDOWN
Suffolk looks to snap a four-game skid that put the Rams at 4-5 on the year and 1-2 in CCC play.  

The trio of Evan Cook (16.8 ppg), Keenan Robertson (14.8 ppg), and Danny Yardemian (11.9 ppg) lead Suffolk's 74.3 ppg scoring. 

Robertson's 6.1 rpg is the top contributor on the glass with Yardemian's 5.0 rpg good for second on the squad.  

COLONELS CATCHUP
Curry won five games in a row to open the season but has gone 1-4 over the last five to bring a 6-4 overall mark into Tuesday's tilt. In CCC play, the Colonels are 0-3.  

The foursome of Jason Romans (18.2 ppg), Lowelle Torres (14.4 ppg), Nick Johnson (12.8 ppg) and Carl Monplaisier (12.0 ppg) power Curry's 73.3 ppg offensive output. 

Romans paces the pack defensively as well with 9.3 rpg. Shawn Charles pitches in 9.6 rpg to the Colonels' 35.9 rpg effort.
