Rhode Island Form & Recent Results

Rhode Island heads into this game looking to bounce back after having their recent momentum slowed by a one-game skid, although they have still managed to win three of their last five. Their most recent performance was a 75–70 loss at George Washington on Tuesday night in Washington, D.C., a game where they had some strong individual performances but couldn’t quite do enough late. Tyler Cochran carried a big part of the scoring load with 24 points, Keeyan Itejere controlled the glass with 12 rebounds, and RJ Johnson helped keep the offense moving with 7 assists. One of the main issues though was ball security, as Rhode Island turned it over 13 times, and those extra possessions made the difference in a tight matchup.

Overall this season, Cochran has been Rhode Island’s most reliable scorer, leading the team at 14.7 points per game, with Jonah Hinton close behind at 13.7. Itejere and Mouhamed Sow have been the top rebounders on the boards, each pulling down 5.6 per game so far this season, while Johnson sets the table as the team’s leading passer at 3.2 assists a night. Recently, the Rams have been producing a steady offensive output, averaging 73.6 points over their last five games, and they’ve been especially solid at home with an 8–4 record and 74.2 points per game in their own building. Hosting Fordham on Saturday afternoon, Rhode Island will be focused on evening out their A-10 record, knowing another loss could push them further down the standings.

Fordham Form & Recent Results

Fordham comes into this game feeling a little better about itself, riding a one-game winning streak and taking three wins in its last five games overall. The Rams most recently edged Saint Joseph’s 68–64 on Tuesday in Philadelphia, and it was a gritty win built on a few key individual efforts. Rikus Schulte led the way with 19 points, while Abass Bodija controlled the glass with 10 rebounds and Christian Henry helped steady the offense with four assists. As a team, Fordham shot 41% from the field and did a solid job at the free-throw line, hitting 76% of its attempts. They also limited mistakes with just seven turnovers, although they weren’t in front for most of the night, leading for only 27% of the game, making it the kind of win where they had to stay composed and finish strong late.

Dejour Reaves has been Fordham’s main source of scoring so far this season, putting up 17.1 points per game, with Zarique Nutter next in line at 12.7 points a night. Schulte isn’t just a scoring threat either, he’s also the Rams’ top rebounder, averaging 9.2 boards per game, while Henry leads the team in playmaking at 5.2 assists per game. Over their last five games, Fordham has averaged 67.4 points, showing they’ve been fairly steady offensively but not exactly explosive. Away from home, they’re 3–4, and they’ve given up about 70.1 points per game in those road games, which has made winning consistently a challenge. Conference play has been a struggle for the Rams for much of the season, but they’ll be hoping that the close, hard-earned win over Saint Joseph’s can provide some real momentum as they head into this game against Rhode Island.
