#2 seed Robert Morris will get ready to face #3 seed Detroit Mercy Titans in the Horizon League Tournament, as both teams look to advance to the championship game. Robert Morris has been playing excellent basketball down the stretch, winning 8 straight games — including an 11-point victory over Detroit on February 25. In that matchup, the Colonials shot 36% from beyond the arc and forced 12 Detroit turnovers that turned into 23 points. 

Robert Morris will look to keep its momentum going behind Ryan Prather Jr., who is coming off a strong performance after scoring 24 points against Youngstown State. Detroit also brings plenty of offensive talent into this matchup, with 4 players averaging double-figures — led by Orlando Lovejob at 15.3 points per game. While both teams are fairly even offensively, Robert Morris holds the advantage on the defensive end — allowing just 72.2 points per game compared to Detroit’s 78.2. That defensive consistency could prove to be the difference in this matchup. I expect this to be a great matchup between 2 talented teams, but the Colonials’ balanced offense and stronger defense should help them control the pace and secure a win. Look for Robert Morris to get the job done and advance to the Horizon League Championship.
