The home advantage has been notable for Marist, who have a home record of 3-1 in their last four games, while Rider has yet to secure a victory in their last four away games. The Red Foxes have been particularly strong at home, where they have been able to leverage their crowd support and familiarity with the venue.

In terms of injuries, the block did not provide specific details, but the overall context suggests that both teams are looking to field their best players as they navigate the latter part of the season.

The Red Foxes' scoring plays were highlighted by contributions from various players, including a notable three-point jumper by Justin Menard and several layups from Daniel Helterhoff, who was instrumental in the second half.

The game showcased Marist's depth and versatility, with multiple players stepping up to contribute to the offensive effort. As the season progresses, Marist's trajectory appears promising, while Rider will need to regroup and address their defensive shortcomings to improve their standing.
