AMHERST, Mass. - The UMass Lowell men's basketball team (3-0) makes the short trek to Massachusetts (1-1) for its lone game of the week on Wednesday, November 11 at 7 p.m.
A WIN WOULD
A win against on Wednesday would mark the third win for UMass Lowell in the all-time series. It would also move the River Hawks' record to 4-0, which would become the best start to a season in the program's Division I history.
LAST TIME OUT
Freshman Jasiah Cannady (Prince George's County, Md.) recorded a team-high 13 points, as the UMass Lowell men's basketball team (3-0) continued its strong start to the 2026-27 season on Sunday afternoon, defeating Marist, 63-61, at the Kennedy Family Athletic Complex to go 2-0 in the America East-Metro Conference Challenge. Cannady, who was one of four River Hawks to finish with double-digit points, added three assists, a rebound, and a steal to his stat line. Right behind him, sophomore Victor Okojie (Castlebar, Ireland) added 11 points and eight rebounds, while sophomores Christian Jones (Houston, Texas) and Jayden Harris (Dumfries, Va.) each added 10 points. Leading the team on the glass, senior Jakai Newton (Covington, Ga.) posted 10 boards alongside seven points. As a team, UMass Lowell outrebounded Marist, 37-32, including a 12-3 advantage on the offensive glass, while forcing 12 turnovers and committing just six.
OFF AND RUNNING
The River Hawks, who are used to strong starts, have jumped out to a 3-0 start to the season for the first time since the 2023-24 season. With the win over Rivier on Nov. 2, the River Hawks have now opened the season with a victory seven years in a row. It also marks the 13th straight win for the team in their home opener.
HELPING HANDS
The River Hawks matched a Division I record with 29 assists against Rivier on Nov. 2. The team has previously tallied 29 assists on two occasions, most recently against Emerson in 2023.Â
LARGER THAN LIFE
The River Hawks' roster looks a lot different than last season, as UMass Lowell only returns three players from the previous season. Despite the challenge of the unknown, Head Coach Pat Duquette is looking forward to seeing what his roster, which features three returners, five transfers and four freshman, can do. The 2026-27 roster is the tallest for the River Hawks at the Division I level, averaging 6'4" with seven team members standing at least 6'5".
HOME SWEET HOME
Kennedy Family Athletic Complex has been very kind to the home team during the last four seasons, as the River Hawks are currently 53-9 in the building since the 2022-23 campaign.
