RIVERDALE, N.Y. ?  The Manhattan men's basketball team is set to square off with Loyola on Saturday afternoon in Riverdale. Jaspers fans can catch the national broadcast which airs live on ESPNU. MAAC announcers Doug Sherman and Rob Kennedy will have the call for this highly anticipated league rivalry. Tip off is slated for 4 p.m. at Draddy Gymnasium.

In the programs' first meeting this season, the Greyhounds edged Manhattan 77-54 at Reitz Arena in Baltimore. The Jaspers received balanced bench production, but Loyola guard Gerald Brown's game-high 22 points put the Greyhounds over the top.

Manhattan is scheduled to appear again on ESPNU February 15 when it welcomes Marist to Draddy Gymnasium.
