La Salle at George Washington

La Salle is a dog, but are decent team with a winning overall record. La Salle ranks second in the Atlantic 10 in free throw percentage (.708) and fifth in field goal percentage defense (.428). The Explorers have held conference opponents to a .267 mark behind the three point line. They are off a double OT loss to powerhouse VCU and have still won six of the last eight. La Salle will look to notch their sixth straight victory over the George Washington Colonials here. It's an emotional week as La Salle will wear a No. 15 patch on its jerseys for the remainder of the season in the memory of Tom Gola, who passed away on Sunday. The Explorers outlasted the Colonials 76-72 at Tom Gola Arena in the Atlantic 10 conference opener for both schools on January 9th, shooing 49% and allowing 38%. In fact, the Explorers are 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings, so grab the dog and play on La Salle.
