RAMS RUNDOWN
Suffolk women's basketball is off to its best start, 3-0, since 2011-12.  

The Rams success is thanks in large part the upperclassman pair of Amanda DeAngelis and Lauren Romito. DeAngelis leads the way offensive and defensively as the senior averages a double-double of 17.0 ppg and 14.0 rpg. Romito, meanwhile, is on the verge of a double-double average with 13.3 ppg and 9.7 rpg. Colby Guinta and Jordan Moreau supply 10.7 ppg and 10.0 ppg, respectively, to the blue-and-gold's 76.3 ppg offense. 

VIKINGS VIEW
Salem State assembled a 4-1 record with victories over Elms (87-82), Salve Regina (81-77), Johnson & Wales (66-53) and Gordon (75-67) and a 64-51 setback at Lasell.  

The Vikings' 72.0 ppg offense sees a quartet of players averaging double figures in Abuk Teng (16.6 ppg), Kylie Gates (15.2 ppg), Ernidia Goncalves (14.2 ppg) and Nicolette D'Itria (10.6 ppg). 

Defensively, Goncalves' 12.2 rpg paces SSU's 48.2 rpg effort on the glass. Teng pitches in 8.0 rpg and D'Itria adds 7.4 rpg.
