Known as the "Red Foxes", Marist is a small liberal arts college in Poughkeepsie, New York, with somewhere around 7000 students and has campuses in several different countries including, England, Eygpt, and China. They have had two players drafted to the NBA (I know, I couldn't believe it either) one being Jared Jordan in 2007, and Rik Smits being taken 2nd over all in 1988 by the Pacers.
Their basketball team out of the MAAC Conference didn't have the best of seasons last year, ending the season with a record of 6-28. Their largest margin of victory last season was 74-64 over Canisius, which was also part of their longest winning streak last year at 2. This years squad has two players standing at 6'10 (both sophomores), after that, their tallest player is 6'6.
Kentucky shouldn't have any problem handling this team much like they did Morehouse all though I doubt UK wins by 85 again, but the Red Foxes ( I can't help but think of the comedian) might have other plans.
So, let's get ready for the tip off of what is sure to be another great season of Kentucky Basketball!
