Monmouth Hawks
Monmouth has had a challenging start to the season with several significant losses, including to Michigan State, Temple, Northern Illinois, and Rutgers. Despite some close spreads, the team struggled to secure victories against Temple and NIU. However, standout player Abdi Bashir has been a bright spot for the team, leading in points per game. Coach King Rice has faced ups and downs in his tenure, with the team finishing last season with a winning record. In terms of statistics, Monmouth struggles offensively with low field goal percentages but performs well in free throws. Defensively, the team allows a high percentage of field goals but excels in defensive rebounds. There is room for improvement in both offensive and defensive performances for the Hawks.
