<p>Holy Cross is looking to continue their dominance over Navy and grab an all important home game in the Patriot League quarterfinals.</p> <p>Holy Cross and Navy tip-off at noon today for a little Sunday action Patriot League style. With a win and Bucknell loss, the Bison play Boston University simultaneously, the Crusaders will clinch having a Patriot League quarterfinal game on their home court.</p>
<p>Last month the Crusaders beat Navy in Annapolis 67-52 in a game Holy Cross never trailed in. The win over the Midshipmen was the seventh in a row for the Crusaders and if they win again today it will be the fourth straight year that they have swept the Patriot League series. Furthermore, a win today would give Holy Cross their first 11 conference win season since 2009.</p>
<p>Navy is a team looking for some momentum heading into the Patriot League Tournament and looking to end the Crusaders dominance over them.</p>
<p>We'll have tip-off for you live on Mid-Major Madness thanks the Patriot League Network presented by Campus Insiders.</p>

<p>Lafayette hasn't had the season it expected, but the Leopards are on a hot streak and could be very dangerous in one week's time as the Patriot League Tournament begins</p> <p>Thanks to the <a href="http://campusinsiders.com/network/patriot_league">Patriot League Network powered by Campus Insiders</a>, we are pleased to bring you this live stream of Sunday's game between the <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/teams/lehigh-mountain-hawks" class="sbn-auto-link">Lehigh Mountain Hawks</a> and the <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/teams/lafayette-leopards" class="sbn-auto-link">Lafayette Leopards</a>.</p>
<p>Lafayette enters Sunday having won five out of their last six games, with the only defeat coming at the hands of league-leading Boston University. Outside of the blemish, this has been the team that everyone expected to see, the one picked second to the Terriers in the preseason by almost everyone.</p>
<p>A win against the Mountain Hawks gives the Leopards at least a chance to pull out of the final four spots in the league. That means avoiding a first round game and the need to win four instead of three games to get to the <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/march-madness" class="sbn-auto-link">NCAA Tournament</a>.</p>
<p>Can the Leopards add another split to their season, after losing to every team in the first go around? We will find out here at noon Eastern.</p>

<p>George Washington and Saint Louis face off in a crucial contest in the Atlantic 10, for seeding and possibly the championship run.</p> <p>Thanks to the Atlantic 10 Network powered by Campus Insiders, we are pleased to bring you this exclusive live stream of Saturday's game between the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/teams/george-washington-colonials">George Washington Colonials</a> and the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/teams/saint-louis-billikens">Saint Louis Billikens</a>.</p>
<p>The Colonials and Billikens meet Saturday in a game that has massive implications in the Atlantic 10 with just five games remaining on the schedule, including this one.</p>
<p>If Saint Louis can score the win, the Billikens will be 12-0 in conference and have a three-game lead on St. Joseph's with just four games to play. That pretty much secures them the top seed in the upcoming conference tournament.</p>
<p>But needing this win more might be George Washington, who had a big victory earlier this week against Richmond. The Colonials find themselves locked in a tie for third place with VCU and UMass. The three teams have been slugging it out between them all season, so it is only fitting they have this cluster at this spot in the standings.</p>
<p>Can the Colonials finally figure out how to beat the Billikens in Saint Louis? We will find out right here with this exclusive live stream at 8 p.m. Eastern.</p>

<p>Pacific travels to an under the radar San Francisco who has claimed a big hold on the No. 3 spot in the conference without the big names on the court.</p> <p>Thanks to <a href="http://thew.tv/">theW.tv</a>, we are pleased to bring you this live stream of Saturday's game between the <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/teams/pacific-tigers" class="sbn-auto-link">Pacific Tigers</a> and the <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/teams/san-francisco-dons" class="sbn-auto-link">San Francisco Dons</a>.</p>
<p>San Francisco did themselves good with a big win over St. Mary's this week. That gives the Dons the inside edge for the No. 3 seed in the <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/wcc-basketball-tournament" class="sbn-auto-link">WCC Tournament</a>. And to think the season began with them losing one of their most important players.</p>
<p>Instead of being led by big names, this San Francisco team has moved to the top of the conference quietly without the stars. Otherwise, we would be hearing a lot about <span>Kruize Pinkins</span>. I mean, how do you ignore a name like that.</p>
<p>The junior is one of the best rebounders in the country at the offensive end and helps the Dons to extend their possessions. And over the last two games, he has contributed 42 points on the scoreboard.</p>
<p>Can Pinkins help lead San Francisco when Pacific comes to town? We will find out here at 3 p.m. Pacific.</p>

<p>St. Mary's couldn't hold off Jared Brownridge at home. What hope do they have going on the road?</p> <p>Thanks to <a href="http://thew.tv/">theW.tv</a>, we are pleased to bring you this live stream of Saturday's game between the St. Mary's Gaels and the <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/teams/santa-clara-broncos" class="sbn-auto-link">Santa Clara Broncos</a>.</p>
<p>St. Mary's didn't make things simple for themselves over the last couple of games. A loss to BYU, a loss to San Francisco, a lot of questions about what team the Gaels really are.</p>
<p>Those questions will be on display Saturday afternoon as they face Santa Clara, a team that doesn't have the chops that the Gaels have, but managed to sneak past St. Mary's earlier this season.</p>
<p>That was back when St. Mary's could still have dreams of competing for the WCC title, and possibly catching Gonzaga. Now the challenge will be trying to reach third place in the conference. That would require some help by San Francisco's opponents, and a lot of luck from here on out.</p>
<p>Will the luck be on the Gaels side against the Broncos in Santa Clara? We will find out here at 1 p.m. Pacific.</p>

<p>American welcomes Army with second place in the Patriot League at stake.</p> <p>Thanks to the <a href="http://campusinsiders.com/network/patriot_league">Patriot League Network powered by Campus Insiders</a>, we are pleased to bring you this live stream of Saturday's game between the American Eagles and the <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/teams/army-black-knights" class="sbn-auto-link">Army Black Knights</a>.</p>
<p>American's great start to the Patriot League season seems like a distant memory at this point. Things got worse for the Eagles after losing earlier this week against Boston University, who is just one win away from clinching the conference crown.</p>
<p>Now the Eagles need a win and a Holy Cross loss just to grab second place in the league. It doesn't seem right given that this team was 10-0 at one point.</p>
<p>It won't be easy though as Army is not the pushover that they once were for American. The Eagles lead the all-time season 25-6 but were swept last season in three games and were fought hard earlier this year by the Black Knights.</p>
<p>Can American make its conference tournament life a little easier with a win today? We will find out at 2 p.m. Eastern.</p>

<p>Today's game between the Greyhounds and Raiders may not look like much on paper but the game has major seeding implications for the first round of the Patriot League Tournament next month.</p> <p>Loyola and Colgate have combined to lose seven straight games and both came into Saturday's match up looking to snap those streaks. Earlier this year the Greyhounds took down Colgate 67-60 in Baltimore and were looking for a sweep of the Raiders on Saturday.</p>
<p>While Saturday's game may not look like a particularly big one it did hold a bit of significance. The numbers seven and eight seeds will get to host a first round game in the Patriot League Tournament and Loyola current stands eighth tied with Lafayette at a 5-10 mark in the league. Colgate is dead last at tenth in the league at 3-12 but is just one game behind Navy in the Patriot League standings.</p>
<p>Tip-off is set for 2 PM from Hamilton, New York and we'll have it live here on Mid-Major Madness thanks to the Patriot League Network presented by Campus Insiders? Can either of these teams build some momentum going into the Patriot League Tournament?</p>
