All of a sudden the season seems to be on the line for Bona, which was looking like a potential A-10 contender into January but has instead opened 0-3 in loop play. Mark Schmidt's Bonnies have been close vs. VCU, Richmond and Fordham, but frustration is growing after the narrow defeats. Further angst with recent foul trouble for Minnesota transfer PF Frank Mitchell (16 ppg, 10.8 rpg) DQ'd twice in recent weeks, including Saturday's loss to the Rams when he was held to just six points. Meanwhile, St Joe's has recovered to win two straight, but the Hawks have a problem if they fall behind, as poor 27.2% three-point shooting (ranks 358th out of 361) remains an issue for Billy Lange. Play the Bonnies.
