RAMS RUNDOWN
Suffolk women's basketball brings a 3-1 ledger into the midweek match. The Rams started the year with three straight victories over New England College (68-48), Saint Joseph's (Maine) (54-47) and Salem State (77-74) before falling at Emerson, 53-48, Sunday. 

The Rams have a trio of players averaging double figures in Amanda DeAngelis (15.0), Colby Guinta (14.8) and Jordan Moreau (11.3). The top of that trio also anchors the effort on the glass.
