RIVERDALE, N.Y. – The Jaspers enter the penultimate week of the regular season, hosting Iona on Thursday, followed by the team's first trip to Emmitsburg for a Saturday afternoon tilt with Mount St. Mary's.

Manhattan went 1-1 last week, dropping their Thursday game against Marist in Draddy but bounced back on Saturday on the road against Saint Peter's for the season sweep of the Peacocks.

Iona currently sits on top of the MAAC, with an impressive record of 20-5 and 15-1 in league play all while riding a 14-game win streak. The lone loss in MAAC play came at the hands of Fairfield early on. Iona's offense is a three-headed attack between Juana Camilion, Kate Mager, and Ketsia Athias.

Athias, the reigning MAAC Player of the Week, has provided the Gaels with 11.6 points and 7.5 rebounds a game. Mager has been a three-point specialist for the Gaels. Mager has been shooting at 49.7 percent on the season for 12 points per contest. Camilion is the real engine that drives the Gaels. The senior gives the Gaels 15.2 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 3.7 assists a game.

The Mount enters this week sporting a record of 10-15 overall and 6-10 in league play in their first year as members of the MAAC. Before the Jaspers' visit, the Mount will be featured on ESPNU during their Thursday morning tilt at Rider.

When Manhattan hosted The Mount in the team's conference opener back on Dec. 17, the Jasper defense was in top form, holding The Mount's offense to just 46 points in a 64-46 victory. The Mount's top offensive performer this season is Michael Harrison, who is averaging 12.4 points per game. Right behind her is Jessica Tomasetti, who is adding 11.4 points a game.
