Hartford -3.5 over Binghamston ***
1st of all downtown Hartford has the worst traffic going on interstate 84. Morning and rush hour are insane. But they do have Mark Twains house . Hartford can score avgs 90 th in the country. So why do they have a losing record . Yes Its defense where they play none ranking them in the 300's in a few categories. But Bings offense is just avg . But Harford does have the best player in the Amer East conference in Austin Williams a 6'4 gd that can score He had 24 pts the other night vs Vermont. His other partner Flowers gives them the best 2 gd tandem in the conference. The bad news about Harford is that their bd of regents has decided to drop D-1 status and go D-2 or D-3. next year. Vermont has the best team in the AEast and they gave them a tough game on Saturday but still lost. Now Binhamton is a SUNY school that plays D-1 . To get in academically is very very hard. Their entrance is almost equal to Ivy League schools. A few years ago they had over 100 NY State HS valedictorians attend. I was very good friends with Dave A their former coach . I had kids who could play their but not study there.
they have 2 transfer gds Falco and McGriff that are thier leading scorers. They are an avg scoring team so even though Hartfords weakness is defense don't think Bearcats have enough to out score the Hawks. Last yr Hartford won 77-60
