The Terriers losing streak extended to three games after losing another close game to LIU, 66–69, which was televised on SNY. The loss to LIU also ended the Terriers 6-game home win streak for the season. The Terriers then snapped their 3-game losing streak by defeating the Wagner Seahawks behind exceptional performances by Chauncey Hawkins (20 pts, 3 ast, 4 stl) and Unique McLean (18 pts, 12 reb, 3 ast, 2 stl, 2 blk).[8] The Terriers then traveled to Mount St. Mary's and were stifled by the Mountaineers defense, losing 39–59, a season low in points for the Terriers.[9] The Terriers next hosted then NEC leading Robert Morris and upset the Colonials, 78–57. Five Terriers scored more than ten points, and McLean recorded his fourth double-double of the season.[10] St. Francis Brooklyn leveled their season (10–10) and conference (4–4) records by defeating Saint Francis (PA) 86–79 at home. In the game, Deniz Celen (22 pts) and Chauncey Hawkins (21 pts) led the Terriers in scoring.[11]
