Matchup: Pitt-Greensburg Bobcats (7-0, 1-0 AMCC) vs. Pitt-Bradford Panthers (5-2, 0-1 AMCC)
Date/Time: December 6, 4 PM
Location: KOA Arena
The Pitt-Greensburg Bobcats head to KOA Arena on Saturday looking to keep their perfect season alive. UPG enters the matchup at 7-0 overall and 1-0 in AMCC play after a dominant 93-66 win over Penn State Altoona on Wednesday. In that victory, Trent Rozich led the way with 22 points as part of a balanced offensive attack that saw five Bobcats score in double figures.
Balance has been the story all season for Pitt-Greensburg, with four players averaging double digits: Rozich (15.7), Jackson Byer (15.5), Matthew Marinchak (12.1), and Michael Bigley (11.0). Rozich is also closing in on a career milestone, needing just 88 points to reach 1,000. The Bobcats were picked first in the AMCC preseason poll and have looked every bit the part so far.
Pitt-Bradford, the reigning AMCC champions, enters at 5-2 overall and 0-1 in conference play after falling to Hilbert 99-84 in their league opener. The Panthers are under new leadership this season with head coach Dan Smay, who previously guided Penn State DuBois to a 30-31 record. Bradford graduated AMCC Player of the Year Jamarion Butler but still boasts talent, led by Jeremy Rodriguez, who scored 23 points against Hilbert and matches his team-leading scoring average.
The two teams split last year's regular-season meetings, setting the stage for another competitive matchup.
