With a win over Rider this Thursday night, March 6, at 6 p.m., Canisius Women’s Basketball qualifies for the MAAC Tournament.
While every game matters, this one matters just a bit more. We hope to see you (and especially hear you) at the Koessler Athletic Center on Thursday night. Coach Swafford and this team have over-achieved. They work incredibly hard and they will make you proud win or lose, but they could really use your support on Thursday night.

Thanks and go Griffs!
