The Series: Vassar has won five straight against Clarkson and 13 of the last 14 dating back to the 2017-18, the lone win since for the Knights came in a 83-81 victory at Alumni Gymnasium in 2022-23. The historical matchup with Bard has been extremely lopsided, 24-1, in favor of the Knights.
Key Stats for Clarkson (4-6, 0-3 Liberty League): Fallon Griffin (16 points) and Bella Doyle (15 points) combined for 31 of the team's 55 points at St. Lawrence on Monday. The duo shot a combined 7-12 from behind the arc while Doyle leads the league in field goal percentage with a 60% mark. A point of concern has been turnovers up to this point but the team managed to rebound from 23 on January 2nd at Plattsburgh State, turning the ball over just 14 times, a season-low, Monday afternoon.
Key Stats for Vassar College (3-6, 2-0 Liberty League): The Brewers enter the weekend on a three-game losing stretch but each of those losses have come at the hands of #6 Bowdoin, Tufts and Hamilton, all strong NESCAC programs. Sierra McDermed leads the team with 14.1 points per game, connecting for 22 versus Tufts, while leading the league in minutes with an average of 35.4 a game. Lindsey Shoulders grabs a team-high 7.9 rebounds per contest to go along with 12.8 points. The first-year has been tabbed as the Liberty League Rookie of the Week four times already this year.
Key Stats for Bard College (3-7, 1-3 Liberty League): With a win versus William Smith on December 5th, the Raptors broke a Liberty League losing streak that dated back to the 2012-13 season when they beat Clarkson 52-46 in Potsdam. Lexi Miller ranks second in the league in rebounding, grabbing 9.2 boards a game. Guard Jessica Martin set a program record for three-pointers with nine in a 30-point performance on November 24th versus MCLA. In the five games since the junior has hit just eight trifectas.
