The Saint Francis U men's basketball team looks to make it two wins in a row as it takes on Robert Morris for the first time this season Thursday night.

Both teams are coming off their longest NEC road trip of season, with visits to Bryant and Central Connecticut.  The Red Flash earned a split in its first taste of NEC action, while Robert Morris swept its two-game docket.

Robert Morris' scoring efforts are led by Karvel Anderson who is averaging 19.3 points per game. Anderson is a threat from 3-point range, connecting on nearly 48% (61 of 128) of shots from beyond the arc. Lucky Jones is RMU's top rebounder, pulling in 5.7 per contest.  Robert Morris is +11 on the boards over its past two games.

The Red Flash is not only looking for consecutive wins for the first time this season, but are also looking to snap a 10-game losing streak to Robert Morris. The last time the Flash overtook the Colonials was back during the 2007-08 season.

SFU is 13-19 all-time in Moon Township, Pa.

Saint Francis returns home to Sweet Loretto on Saturday for an afternoon matchup with Wagner. Tip-off is scheduled for 2 p.m.
