Under the Radar Game of the Day – Wednesday, November 13th

Canisius (0-2) at Mercyhurst (2-1, 1-1 D1) – 7:00 PM ET (NEC Front Row)

Tonight’s UTR Game of the Day makes its first appearance in Erie, Pennsylvania as the Mercyhurst Lakers host their first ever Division 1 opponent – the Canisius Golden Griffins. MU defeated Morgan State 78-73 for their first win at the Division 1 level last week; they were led by Mykolas Ivanauskas’ 16 points off the bench. Mercyhurst will be playing in the Northeast Conference this season.

Canisius has started off the season with back-to-back losses; after a blowout loss at Arizona, the Golden Griffins hosted Big 3 rival St. Bonaventure but came up short 87-78. Paul McMillan IV (a transfer from Central Michigan) did score 31 points against the Bonnies, but it was not enough to lead Canisius to victory.
